It has violated Article 202 that demands that revenue raised be shared equitably. It has also violated the Constitution in the sense that they received the audited financial statements from the Auditor-General for Financial Year 2024/2025, but they have refused to consider. That means that any funds can never be shared equitably between the national and county governments."

"content": "If we rely on audited financial statements for Financial Year 2020/2021, the only amount of money that can be proposed by the National Assembly to be shared amongst counties is about 14 per cent. That tells us that all these new taxation policies being introduced by the Government are only going to hurt Kenyans more and create huge pending bills where all governors will be appearing before our Committee on Finance and Budget and oversight committees to answer questions as to why they are not remitting statutory deductions."
