Bumula Member of Parliament Jack Wamboka has called for the total shutdown of the National Assembly over what he termed as botched promises by the National Treasury.
Wamboka spoke during parliamentary proceedings on Tuesday, where he lamented the long delays in the disbursement of National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) funds by the National Treasury. "I want to call upon Members of this House that we freeze any business of this House and call on the Minister of Finance to come and give us CDF money in full," Wamboka declared, adding that constituencies were suffering as a result of the delays.
According to the vocal lawmaker, the delays in the disbursement of NG-CDF funds have rendered MPs helpless as they face mounting pressure from their constituents to account for stalled projects.
