The Kisumu county government stands to lose Sh22 million paid for car and mortgage loans for five sacked executives. The Auditor’s General Financial statement report for 2014-15 states the county revoked the officers’ appointments. The report says at the time of revocation, the executives had car and mortgage loans worth Sh22 million. “Consequently, the propriety of the expenditure could not be confirmed and the county stands to lose Sh22 million paid to the sacked officers,” the report said. Ouko says in January last year, the county paid all its employees through cheques, which were to be collected by the employees.
