[SIZE=7]Multi-billion scandal unearthed at National Irrigation Board[/SIZE]
By Stephen Letoo For Citizen Digital https://3dwnh01icn0h133s00sokwo1-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/galana.jpg
The Auditor General has unearthed a scandal at the National Irrigation Board where billions of shillings were sank into projects that yielded little for taxpayers.
An audit report for the 2015-2016 financial years for instance shows that the Galana Kulalu irrigation project scheme launched by President Uhuru Kenyatta in January 2014 to stock the country’s food basket with 20 million bags of maize only yielded 103,000 bags.
This despite a whopping Ksh.7.3 billion having been pumped into the project.
It, therefore means that more than Ksh.708,000 was used to grow maize on just one acre at the Kulalu scheme.
Auditor General Edward Ouko found that the National Irrigation Board inflated the cost of leasing an acre from Ksh.300 to Ksh.3,000 per acre.
For the five years, the taxpayer has lost a staggering Ksh.3.2 billion for leasing 20,000 acres. What’s more, only 10,000 acres of the leased land was put to use.
Twenty-one irrigation projects have so far stalled after sinking Ksh.880 million with the board already requesting for an extra Ksh.15 billion to complete the projects.
As if that is not enough, the board also failed to account for another Ksh.3.6 billion used in Mwea, Bura, Tana, Perkerra, Ahero, West Kano and Bunyala irrigation schemes.
The Kenya Revenue Authority is owed Ksh.623 million according to the report while an additional Ksh.4.1 billion is owed to contractors who did business with the board.
The revelations coming in the wake of graft scandals at the National Youth Service, Kenya Power, Kenya Pipeline Company and the Youth Fund in which public officers looted billions of shillings.
Shida ni the main perpetrators/beneficiaries are people in govt or positions of influence. Civil servants sasa wamekuwa scapegoat without being given the right to defend themselves.
He he he, lakini if you know you are not clean unakunja mkia na kuzama chini ya maji pole pole.
Scapegoating as usual…but it’s a good start…sai hata kuitisha per diem yako itakua shida
Kama wameona hapo ndipo shida ipo basi wacha kaende! Kuna hali ugonjwa hufikia ukawa hukatai dawa yoyote hata kama ni ya kujaribu! Huu ugonjwa wetu sasa hivi uko serious!
Kuna wakenya :meffi::meffi: you complain about corruption mpaka watu hawawezi pumua, when the govt. acts on corruption mnaanza kulia mara sijui “knee jerk reaction” sijui “witch-hunt” mnatakanga aje?
shait, shait everywhere.
Let’s wait and see how Maraga and his activist judges handle this one.
But it will be no surprise there knowing that many if them are more corrupt than the procurement officers.
Good Sir, in this life, a mature man engages himself in an activity in a conscientious manner such that if it is resolving an issue he resolves it fully while looking into the future whilst a vagabond only does that which whets his appetite for the moment like a beast with no regard for tomorrow. This is NOT what we want. We want justice and equity. What is happening now is sending a signal that I either be a mwk, relative or spouse of the Pres. or VP so that if I steal they will fire and jail the officers of the company but not jail me.
I wish to call out this action as pure and utter nonsense. You do not cut a tree from the crown part.
Seems like they were not fired, at least not actually!

They are asked to step aside probably with pay and given less than 1 week to return the declaration for vetting, upon which they will either resume their duties or full sacking and further investigation will commence.
As we have already seen, corruption often becomes a family affair with close family members dragged in, usually to help move around the stolen funds. Ideally when they make a declaration of their wealth, they need to declare assets held under partners –wife/husband’s name.
Corruption is usually a network, these senior staff are the link between those senior staff in Gov, junior staff and private enterprises, the kind that deliver air. They have to start here with these lot, it is they who sign the checks and facilitate corruption; after which the fight against corruption can extend further.
It’s now time for them to expose the real culprits. If not unapeleka ujinga nyumbani.100% of them will fail the polygraph test. Then they’ll run to the courts.
All these are sideshows to make Kenyans think something is being done. They might catch the small fish but the sharks will continue swimming.
Aren’t Samuel Gichuru and Chris Okemo still free men? Didn’t Miguna Miguna expose the people behind the maize scandal 1? Triton scandal. NYS 1 etc
If Kenyans buy this act then it will be their loss because every few years they run this same same play and we buy it only to discover it was a con

The civil servants should also not allow themselves to be used, if they don’t authenticate irregularity then nobody will come to hunt them down. It is very hard to pin down lets say a CS due to the fact that they don’t approve any processes that would lead to payment of public funds. Though I agree the best way is to deal with the culprits who are behind the scenes, however the civil servants should be bold enough by providing crucial evidence that will be used to apprehend the masterminds and cartels.

Sidhani kama kuna msafi, several najua, na they are pretty low level procurement officers wanajenga tu hotels “bar, restaurant na lodging” ocha kwao
