President William Ruto will soon make refunds to the Housing Levy Fund for all the money used in the construction of markets, despite government assistance to divert the funds to other infrastructure projects like schools and markets.
This is according to COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli, who met with the President on Wednesday, June 18, to discuss several critical issues concerning the administration and use of the affordable housing levy fund.
In a statement after the high-level consultative meeting, Atwoli outlined six agreements met, including the refund of all funds used in this construction. "All funds that have already been used to construct markets under the Affordable Housing Programme will be refunded to the Affordable Housing Levy Fund," the statement read.
