Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi has a great understanding of what the poor people go through every day in this country.
In his speech at the historical Jevanjee Gardens Nairobi yesterday Tuesday, Mbadi highlighted, blow by blow, the exact suffering millions of Kenyans endure even as politicians steal their taxes on a daily basis.
He took the time to narrate how in Tana River at a place called Oromo/ Pokomo, children crossing to school have been fed on by crocodiles for decades just because all the past governments have never taken responsibility to construct a basic bridge on the River.
“Though, I also come from a marginalised community, the other day I was in Tana River and what I saw still lingers in my mind fresh. Children in Pokomo have been threatened by crocodiles for years yet people in government continue to steal your money. Every body deserves care and services because we all pay taxes,” he pointed out.
He assured those present in the Jevanjee rally that it will never be the same again under his leadership.
The CS noted that there will be no stealing and misuse of public money by State officers, any more.
The Treasury boss added that the rich people like himself can take a sh 10,000 lunch and still feel unshaken but, for the many poor people spread around the country, the story is different. The 10,000 lunch for the rich can be their only savior the entire month.
Mbadi noted that the little money remaining in the Treasury will be utilised with alot of prudence to help everyone.
