The National Treasury is yet to disburse Sh82 billion balance of the equitable share of revenue to the counties, barely a month to the end of this financial year.
This has derailed the county governments’ response to the Covid-19 pandemic, drought and floods ravaging parts of the country, said the chair of Council of Governors (CoG) Martin Wambora.
“The National Treasury has so far disbursed a total of Sh8.8 billion and outstanding amount owed to the counties is Sh82 billion,” said Wambora who is also the Governor of Embu County, said Governor Hassan Joho’s office in Mombasa.
