Controller of Budget Margaret Nyakang'o has been listed as public enemy number one by the Council of Governors (CoG).
CoG Chair and Wajir Governor Ahmed Abdullahi, on Monday, June 16, revealed that the Governors' caucus will petition both Houses of Parliament to seek her removal, terming her the biggest stumbling block to devolution and county operations.
Furthermore, Abdullahi accused her of being hard-headed and unreasonable in the way she approves funds for counties, claiming that county staff are forced to travel from as far as Wajir, the county represented by the CoG Chair, to queue at her offices for approvals that could otherwise be done online.
In a strongly worded statement, Abdullahi asserted that the governors want the Controller of Budget removed if she does not change and begin acting in support of county governments, voicing their dissatisfaction with what he termed incessant bottlenecks.
