Documented evidence of gross mismanagement, massive corruption, and complete failure of oversight
Details of reasons to replace the entire Siaya government have played before our eyes for the last 3 years. If there is anyone out there who genuinely believes that this government deserves another term, they should have their brain examined by a psychologist.
Gross mismanagement of the Siaya county government that has led to significant losses of public resources through massive corruption
Complete failure to fulfill their primary constitutional duty of providing oversight to the Executive, instead acting as enablers for the Executive
The gross mismanagement of the Siaya county government has led to significant losses of public resources through massive corruption. Public funds meant for development have been diverted, contracts inflated, and resources plundered while citizens suffer.
Alleged diversion of development funds meant for infrastructure projects to personal accounts and unauthorized expenditures
Evidence of contracts awarded at inflated prices to cronies through kickbacks, bribes, and special favors from lobbyists and corporations
Estimated Loss: Over KSh 500 Million in questionable expenditures and missing funds
The MCAs have completely failed to fulfill their primary constitutional duty of providing oversight to the Executive. Instead of holding the governor accountable, they have acted as enablers for the Executive, rubber-stamping corrupt deals and turning a blind eye to mismanagement.
Approving questionable budgets and contracts without proper scrutiny or public participation
Failing to represent constituents' interests and concerns about county governance
Multiple road construction and healthcare facility projects abandoned midway, leaving communities without essential services
Deteriorating health facilities, shortage of medical supplies, and unpaid healthcare workers affecting service delivery
Lack of clean water access in rural areas and poor sanitation facilities affecting public health
Inadequate funding for Early Childhood Development centers and vocational training programs
Failure to adhere to proper procurement procedures and financial reporting requirements as mandated by law
Repeated failure to appear before the county assembly and provide required reports on county operations
Multiple pending court cases and investigations by anti-corruption agencies
Non-compliance with legal requirements to publish quarterly and annual financial reports for public scrutiny
Limited citizen engagement in budget processes and development planning, violating constitutional requirements
While it is the masses who suffer when their leaders become kleptocrats like in Siaya, we, the professionals, businesspeople, and workers are the ones who carry the burden. The list of relatives wanting school fees, medical assistance, food etc. becomes longer and longer.
In a kleptocracy (also referred to as thievocracy), politicians enrich themselves secretly outside the rule of law through kickbacks, bribes, and special favors. Case example: our own county of Siaya.
