Sunday, November 5, 2023 –Azimio la Umoja leaders have ganged up against the government following claims of multi-billion corruption heist at the Treasury.

The opposition brigade, speaking in Mkomoni area Mombasa County on Saturday November 4 during the Luo Cultural Festival, said the revelations by Controller of Budget Dr. Margaret Nyakang’o should be taken seriously by authorities since she has demonstrated willingness to expose, through first experience evidence, that money was being stolen through civil service salaries payslips.

Raila said what the Controller of Budget had shared with the National Dialogue Committee at the Bomas should be urgently investigated and culprits brought to book.

He wondered why the government was hellbent on taxing Kenyans but not moving with speed whenever acts of impunity and graft are shared with it.

He sentiments corroborated by Narc-Kenya’s Martha Karua who said the matter carries a lot of weight since it is taking place in the National Treasury where all the taxes are kept with hopes that government will safeguard the money for development purposes.

Ms Karua added that this makes another key reason why the cost of living has been going up and the shilling dwindling its strength against the world dollar by day.

Speaking in Embakasi East on Saturday, Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka who co-chairs the National Dialogue Committee at the Bomas of Kenya, together with Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah, also shared same remarks and urged the authorities to follow up the matter that seems to have led to billions of taxes getting lost into few hands.

Present in Raila’s Mombasa function was Deputy Governor Francis Thoya, Mombasa Senator Mohammed Faki, National Assembly Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi, Kisauni MP Rashid Juma Bedzimba, Mvita MP Mohammed Soud Machele, Likoni MP Mishi Mboko, Jomvu MP Badi Twalib, and Women Rep ZamZam Chimba Mohammed.

Others are Global Luo Community leader Ker Odungi Randa, Coast Luo elders chairman Obara Kings, CECMs for Roads and infrastructure Dan Manyala, Trade Mohammed Osman, Water Emily Achieng, Lands Mohammed Hussein, Finance Evans Oanda, Members of County AssemblyMCAs from all over the country, Chief officer for Environment Pauline Odinga among many others.
