Trans Nzoia Senator Allan Chesang has asked President William Ruto to establish a task force to investigate the Access to Government Procurement Opportunities(AGPO) over claims of bribery and fraud.
Speaking during an interdenominational prayer service at Cheptais Boys High School in Trans Nzoia County on Sunday, an event attended by the Head of State, Chesang alleged that AGPO has failed to benefit thousands of Kenyan youth as intended, citing corruption as the primary obstacle. ''Your Excellency, you should create for us just a single task force for investigating Access to Government Procurement Opportunities(AGPO) in this your government,'' Chesang urged.
According to the youthful Senator, some people at AGPO have been taking advantage of the youth, women, and people living with disabilities (PWDs) by using their ID cards to register companies.
