Counties will now be evaluated based on their efforts to settle inherited pending bills when approving exchequer releases, as outlined in the new law. The urgency of addressing pending bills is necessary as the government heads to the tail end of this year's financial year. Majority Leader Kimani Ichung'wa's proposed amendment to the Public Finance Management Act seeks to compel county assemblies to pass Finance Bills by June 30 each year. This deadline aims to streamline revenue collection processes and prevent revenue loss resulting from delayed passage of Finance Bills by county assemblies. The proposed amendment responds to a longstanding loophole that has impeded revenue collection efforts in counties, with some assemblies delaying the passage of Finance Bills by several months.

Cast your gaze upon Nairobi and the neglect of planning becomes starkly evident. Each county boasts its own planning department, tasked with ensuring that essential infrastructure - water, sewerage, power, and roads - is in place before the erection of any edifice. Legend has it that in 1973, Singapore sought inspiration from Nairobi's master plan for the ensuing 25 years. Instead, they beheld an urban quagmire, a far cry from the orderly city envisioned in the master plan. Parcels are subdivided ad infinitum, devoid of coordination or infrastructure planning.

The American company involved in a carbon harvesting project in Taita Taveta is not off the hook over sexual harassment allegations. Instead, two lobbies recommended that Verra, the international organisation that grants carbon credits, halts evaluating and awarding the credits to the Wildlife Works Carbon. Kenya Human Rights Commission and Dutch organisation Somo issued a report last year detailing claims of sexual harassment by bosses within Wildlife Works Carbon, which is based in Kasigau village. The review by Verra was based on self-reporting by Wildlife Works Carbon rather than independent sources that could be trusted. "The information presented in Verra’s report is based primarily on accounts by the same company that allowed these abuses to persist for years.

The former prime minister said “security will be on the ballot paper” when Rishi Sunak calls the election later this year. He said the Tory commitment to spend 2.5% of gross domestic product on defence by 2030 was in stark contrast to Labour’s “bunch of people who’ve got no plan”. Answering questions following a speech in central London he said: “To me, security is definitely on the ballot paper. “People care about their financial security, they care about their job security, they care about the security that they have in their lives. Shadow foreign secretary David Lammy has hinted that Labour’s policy could result in 2.5% being reached sooner than the Tory 2030 target.

The cool kids have the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, but the wonks have former Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL). This political beef goes back months, when Gaetz basically single-handedly set in motion the ouster of McCarthy as Speaker of the House last October. In an interview with Politico’s Olivia Beavers published on Wednesday, McCarthy threw down the latest insult against his nemesis, calling him “the Hunter Biden of the Republican party,” referring to the troubled son of President Joe Biden:“Gaetz is the Hunter Biden of the Republican Party,” McCarthy said. As for McCarthy’s allegations about Gaetz, the latter has denied ever paying for sex with an underage girl. A few McCarthy allies have even privately suggested using the internal inquiry’s findings to try to oust Gaetz from Congress, if the conclusions are damaging enough.

In Nyandarua County, Kinangop, there is growing concern among farmers regarding a potential scarcity of fresh produce following continuous rainfall that has led to significant agricultural damage.

Kinangop North's assistant county commissioner, Marcarius Minyori, highlighted that the heavy rainfall has affected nearly all farms in the region, with the potential for a severe potato shortage looming as many farmers face total crop failure. The broader ramifications of these conditions include not only immediate agricultural losses but also long-term food security concerns for the affected families and the region at large.
