"content": "We would also hold responsible the accounting officers who allow this uncontrolled expenditure at the accounting points. You will find that an accounting officer will misappropriate money and the following year, he will use the same trick to continue misappropriating funds, for example, the current issue that is going on now about Mumias. If it went ahead for about eight years unreported, then it means that our auditing function was not operating at that particular time. We hear from our international community that there is a lot of misappropriation at the county level and we are not taking care of that. It means that what we are doing as a country is that we are giving people direct money. We are giving the Governor a lot of money, billions, like you have seen in newspapers. Some have been given Kshs12 billion, Kshs10 billion or Kshs8 billion yet the auditing section of it has not been improved in the equivalent. Then it means that most likely those governors will continue misappropriating that money because the previous amounts were not properly audited."
