Dakane and Abdullahi Hassan concerning misappropriation of funds by the Mandera County Government. Hon. Senators, pursuant to Standing Order Nos. 220(1)(a) and 225(2)(b), I hereby report to the Senate that a petition has been submitted through the Clerk by two residents of Mandera County namely; Abdulsalam M. Dakane and Abdullahi Hassan concerning alleged misappropriation of funds by the Mandera County Government. As you are aware, under Article 119(1) of the Constitution, every person has a right to petition Parliament to consider any matter within its authority including enacting, amending or repealing any legislation. In their petition, the petitioners state that there has been flagrant misappropriation and misapplication of funds by the Mandera County Government which has led to loss of public funds and denial of services to the people of Mandera County. In summary, the petitioners state as follows:- (1) That, the Mandera County Government has been allocating and spending funds towards functions that are the preserve of the national Government and are yet to be devolved to county governments. An example is an allocation of funds towards construction of the national trunk road “B9” being the Mandera-Nairobi Highway which falls within the national Government’s mandate."
