Politicians behind the Oncoming Economic Disaster in Kenya

In an interview broadcasted on Citizen TV on  9/6/2021, Kwame Owino the CEO of the institute for economic Affairs reiterated that the two gentlemen who were seated beside him, were directly to blame for an economic crisis that is going to befall the country. He stated

“The duty of making the budget lay on the hands of the parliamentary budget committee, and the shape texture and size of the budget was to be determined by the committee (People’s representatives) as envisioned in the constitution”

He further stated that Kenyan should “slap” such leaders during elections to make sure that their needs are well represented and enable the improvement of their lives. The two legislators’ Kimani Ichungwa and John Mbadi were left speechless. It seemed they also agreed they were to blame for the economic crisis the country is in.
