A Garissa bank has towed away seven buses bought by the former county administration over debt. The buses were bought for boarding secondary schools in 2016 during former Governor Nathif Jama’s tenure. The governor said a new bus costs about Sh6 million, but the seven refurbished buses were bought for Sh14 million each. “EACC is investigating circumstances under which the buses were bought ... Fortunately, the debt owed to the bank is Sh3 million,” Korane said. “We will discuss with the bank to ensure the buses are returned to the schools soon,” the governor said.
