The Senate Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has reiterated the need for responsible and accountable leadership in the county governance in order to ensure proper management of public funds directed towards implementation of development projects.

Speaking in Uasin Gishu, Senate PAC Chairperson and Homa Bay Senator Moses Kajwang when he led the committee to inspect and interrogate county officials on the use of funds for various projects like the Eldoret 64 Stadium, Ziwa Level 5 hospital and others, he expressed displeasure over the status of the stalled projects in the county.

He urged the county administration to prioritize implementing projects that will take a short period of time and that reflect the value for money in terms of benefiting the residents.

The Uasin Gishu County government faced tough scrutiny from the Senate Public Accounts Committee (PAC) over the stalling of several key development projects despite substantial budget allocations.
