Council of Governors' chairperson Wycliffe Oparanya on Tuesday asked the national government to consider allocating more funds to the counties. During the 2018-2019 financial year there was an increase in revenue allocation to counties from Sh302 billion to Sh314 billion. He, however, said the delay in releasing funds to counties had affected operations in the counties. “Insufficient allocation and the delay in the disbursement of funds to counties by the Treasury have nearly paralysed projects and hampered service delivery in counties,” Oparanya said.
