If someone thinks it is political, why have those people not been brought to book, taken to court and charged? view

• 2 Oct 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I stand to support the report of the Committee on the Turkana County Estimates that were altered and this was brought to the attention of the Controller of Budget. This report was submitted to the Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs Committee and we looked at it. During our visits to the counties, we found out that counties were facing many challenges.
