• 23 Feb 2021 in Senate: I commend the work of the CPAIC. They did a very good job to bring governors on board to come and address audit queries. As a Senate, we disburse money to go the counties with the aim of ensuring it is used for service delivery. Kenya is devolved into the 47 counties so that money reaches the common man. view
