Last week, the National Treasury released Ksh. 1.3 billion for payment of pending bills at City Hall.
However, it has emerged that three garbage collection firms received shs 550 million which was the initial amount released.
The three firms are allegedly owned by Former Governor Evans Kidero’s right hand man Abass Ibrahim Khalif and Businessman Yusuf Maina
Several other SME’s that did business below shs 5 million have been left out.
The SME’s are crying foul and have asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to intervene.
Makongeni MCA Peter Imwatok has written to the controller of budget and the Auditor General to intervene and have the County treasury halt the transfer of the cash.
Imwatok said that senior officers at the County Treasury want to effect the payment to the companies which he alleged are linked to Majority leader Abdi Guyo.
He said the officers are paying the companies to get kickbacks.
Despite an audit of the pending bills, Imwatok said some of the payments are still fictitious because the companies supplied “nothing at all to city Hall”
