A petition has been submitted through the Clerk by Patrick Ochieng Odindo and two other residents of Kawino North Location in Kisumu County concerning the EACC graft investigation of West Kano Irrigation Scheme. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
The salient issues raised in the petition are:
1. That the West Kano Irrigation Scheme Revolving Fund dates from 2009 to 2015 and that in August 2015 a report was made to EACC on the West Kano Irrigation Scheme Revolving Fund graft...
involving the government rehabilitation funds, economic stimulus programme funds and the farmers own saving funds encompassing irrigation, farm machineries, accessories and West Kano Irrigation Rice sales. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
2. The graft involves misappropriation of 13 tractors and accessories granted by the government of Kenya in conjunction with the government of Japan. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
3. Upon receipt of the report, an investigation was launched by the EACC Western Regional Office in Kisumu - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
4. There's a delayed in the investigation of misappropriation of funds by EACC which resulted in the culprits going scot-free and it remains an injustice to the local residents. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
5. The petitioners have made all efforts to have this matter investigated and resolved including reporting it to the commission on Administrative Justice whose response has not been satisfactory. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
6. The petitioners, therefore, prays that the Senate investigates these issues among others instituting a forensic audit of the scheme to ensure that justice is served and culprits are held liable. - Sen. Kathuri Murungi #BungeLiveSEN
