    "content": "Equally, the Water Trust Fund is another Fund that was established to enable marginal counties with severe water scarcity to construct water infrastructure, be they rain water harvesting infrastructure, boreholes, dams or pans. These are grants given to county governments and the county governments implement the projects through companies that they establish. The companies are poorly managed. They are just channels for corruption and mismanagement. Because of this, a lot of funds are available from donors through the Water Trust Fund, but we hardly see any tangible benefits from the Water Trust Fund. We now and then see advertisements in newspapers and our people apply, but eventually, they are all cancelled simply because of mismanagement. The companies are poorly managed. Of course, they are answerable to the governors and other technocrats at the county level. Because of this, the Water Trust Fund is not able to provide the service it was created to provide. I speak for Marsabit and I am sure this is true for most marginal counties."
