Our leaders' appetite for more money is insatiable

The Court of Appeal rightfully quashed the payment of a staggering Sh8 billion to Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs), who believed they were entitled to such allowances despite not working for them. An earlier ruling by the High Court had them walking on air.

The Court of Appeal's decision saved taxpayers from further extortion. The debt that we will pay, the loans borrowed to pay the debts we have, all these resources have been mismanaged by our leaders with responsible authorities struggling to explain such occurrences.
