Turkana County

Do you know that Turkana county get the biggest share of the devolved govt fund…

I thought you should know

one of the main challenges in turkana county is it’s vastness. it becomes a challenge when trying to collect information and dispatching aid at the same time. logistical issues if I may say.

Devolution is a great concept but just like every problem in Kenya we do not execute. If we all played our role and adhered to the constitution we would be a 1st world country in 30 years.

Tafadhali usijaribu kutetea hizo fisi za county government.

I’m not, I have been on the ground and witnessed these.

Just to ask,can’t the governor pinpoint like few selected areas to drill boreholes to at least sort out the water issue once and for all.I mean even if these guys keep.moving,they will know that there are several watering points for themselves and their animals.
With such in place the governor would lie and say i drilled boreholes with the money…i believe noone would question much.
Again the money issued so far should be enough to address those.logistical issues by now

I have been to most counties of the republic on assignments and one county that I highlighted even here on ktalk is turkana. The county is simply behind…I remember writing that the county needs a lot of help from the central government to catch up
…it had been neglected for far too long. In my opinion nanok has really tried…hes doing the job that should have been done by previous central governments. Turkana has almost zero presence of government…the Catholic church has been the one providing most medical and education facilities…infrastructure is almost zero. Yes we can’t totally absolve the county government…but the county is behind by atleast 50years

Turkana needs Govt help even at the best of times. Of course things get worse if the County money is stolen by a few there.

Sikujua it was that bad huko except from the droughts hizo tunaskia kila masaa.

we don"t want to hear this, people are dying in Turkana because ruto stole their money. Nanok is doing his best and if he had that cash that was stolen by ruto he would have fed his people :smiley:
