Gabinete de Kindiki busca mais 350 milhões de xelins para operações diárias

O gabinete do vice-presidente, Prof. Kithure Kindiki, solicitou 350 milhões de xelins adicionais para cobrir suas operações diárias, incluindo aluguel de helicópteros, elevando o orçamento total para 873 milhões de xelins antes da aprovação da Assembleia Nacional. O pedido segue uma dotação inicial de 523 milhões de xelins. A deputada de Kisumu West, Rosa Buyu, condenou a grande alocação como contrária aos esforços do presidente William Ruto para reduzir os gastos do governo.

O gabinete do vice-presidente, Prof. Kithure Kindiki, submeteu uma estimativa suplementar à Assembleia Nacional solicitando mais 350 milhões de xelins para suas operações diárias no ano fiscal que termina em junho. Isso se soma a uma dotação inicial de 523 milhões de xelins, elevando o total para 873 milhões de xelins. Os recursos cobririam despesas como alimentação, entretenimento e aluguel de helicópteros, de acordo com o documento apresentado pelo gabinete. O pedido ocorre em meio aos esforços do governo para reduzir os gastos públicos. A deputada de Kisumu West, Rosa Buyu, criticou a alocação substancial para o gabinete do vice-presidente, afirmando que vai contra o apelo do presidente William Ruto para cortar as despesas governamentais. Buyu argumentou que o grande orçamento contradiz medidas de austeridade mais amplas. Nenhum detalhe adicional foi fornecido pelo gabinete de Kindiki sobre os motivos específicos do aumento. A Assembleia Nacional revisará e decidirá sobre o pedido antes do final do ano fiscal.
