President William Ruto has been called in to mediate an ongoing dispute between governors and Members of Parliament over the collection of the road maintenance levy funds (RMLF).
Tharaka Nithi Governor Muthomi Njoki stressed that Ruto should act as a mediator in the dispute that he termed a threat to devolution.
While speaking during a funeral service, Njuki noted that the standoff that has been ongoing for two years has led to counties facing a cash crunch, resulting in the stalling of many road construction projects in counties. "We have been fighting over resources that have resulted in problems for our people.
An example is in roads.
