The Auditor-General has recommended an investigation into the expenditure of the Covid-19 grant by Taita Taveta County.
In a special audit report, the auditor revealed anomalies and contravention of procurement procedures in the use of the funds by the county.
“As far as we are concerned no money has been stolen in the procurement of goods and services. I will go through the report to acquaint myself with its contents,” he said.
The special audit report done in March 2021 shows that the county irregularly procured beds and mattresses in contravention of the procurement law.
