Principals from several technical and vocational institutions were sent away by Members of Parliament (MPs) after failing to properly respond to audit questions during a parliamentary committee session.
The Public Investments Committee on Governance and Education on Thursday, July 3, led by Bumula MP Wanami Wamboka, met heads from six colleges at Parliament Buildings in Nairobi to question how public funds were used in the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 financial years.
Rachel Kimani, Principal of Maasai Mara Technical Training Institute, accompanied by a finance officer, was sent away for failing to bring the required officers to help answer the audit questions. "Our invitation letter to you was very categorical that your predecessor was to attend this meeting.
We cannot proceed without the principal who was in charge during the audit period," Wamboka said.
