The Controller of Budget (CoB), Margaret Nyakang’o, has said that the State Department for Interior and National Administration is among the leading government ministries and departments whose budgets have received approval.

According to Nyakang’o, the approval now gives them leeway to draw monies from the Exchequer to fund programmes in the 2025/2026 financial year.
The Interior Department and the National Police Service (NPS) have been allocated Sh32.6 billion and Sh125 billion, respectively.
