    "content": "We have done our constitutional obligation. Now, the ball is in the court of this Chamber and ultimately the Government. To round it off, you will see in this Report how the word “imprest” has been misused by CEOs and board directors. You will see how year in, year out some organisations had unqualified accounts. Some of these parastatals have been funded by taxpayers from 2008. Some of these organizations went against the Public Audit Act of 2003. They were audited by private firms despite the law saying otherwise regarding specific audit issues. You will also see how institutions like Telkom Kenya, the Kenya Petroleum Refineries, the Central Bank of Kenya and the National Bank of Kenya opted to bypass the Auditor-General. Today, we know the fate of some of these organisations that we have mentioned. God forbid, if the Central Bank of Kenya was not part and parcel of the Treasury and was not getting money from the Treasury, it could as well be broke today.
