Senate Majority leader Samuel Poghisio addressing parliamentary leadership at State House, Nairobi. [PSCU]A section of West Pokot leaders led by the Senate Majority Leader Samuel Poghisio have urged President Uhuru Kenyatta to step up the fight against corruption with more focus on counties. Speaking yesterday at Sook ward, Poghisio and Kapenguria MP Samuel Moroto said that Kenyans have been denied services because of corruption. Poghisio said corruption was rampant in counties and “we don’t need auditors to help evaluate if officers have looted funds. Their living standards can easily help us tell if they have looted tax payer’s funds.”Senate Majority leader Samuel Poghisio (left) at Parliament Buildings, Nairobi, January 20 2021.
