    "content": "Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta is on record to have used the State of the Nation Address in Parliament to name and shame Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) and people in ‘big’ offices on allegations of corruption. I would have expected that the President would have found time and space in his Speech to name and shame the COVID-19 billionaires. These are people who have negatively innovated around the pandemic to enrich themselves at the expense of dying Kenyans. I would have expected that the very least the President would have done would have been to name and shame them. I would also have expected him to find time and space in his Address to talk about misappropriation of funds devolved to counties for purposes of fighting COVID-19. Governors have been caught red-handed with their hands in the cookie jar. They have misallocated resources to other functions leading to misappropriation of public funds. I felt a bit let down because that did not happen. On this, I speak for and on behalf of the people of Kitui County."
