Kenya stands to lose billions of shillings due to failure by counties and political leaders to complete hundreds of projects. According to the auditor-general Nancy Gathungu, projects worth over Sh360B have stalled in the country either due to lack of budgetary allocation or change in political leadership. Gathungu said some of the projects had been abandoned due to political differences and change in political leadership in constituencies and county levels. She pointed out to political leaders as the main players in the stalled projects after promising the electorate only to miss out in budgetary allocation. “We are concerned by the rising number of stalled project whose cost stands at Sh366 billion and many might never be completed,” she said.
