Governors warn of county shutdown in 14 days over Ksh.78B withheld funds
The Council of Governors (CoG) has threatened to suspend services in county governments within 14 days if allegedly diverted funds to the devolved units are not immediately restored.
This came after the CoG held an extraordinary council meeting on Friday, where it raised concerns over the alleged diversion of funds and called on the national exchequer to release the County Equitable Share, which it claims is in arrears for three months, totalling Ksh.78.03 billion from January 2025.
The CoG also condemned the diversion of Development Partners Conditional Grants, which are meant for county governments under the County Governments Additional Allocation Bill, 2025, arguing that the move is an attempt to systematically undermine service delivery across the 47 counties.
