State House Spokesperson Hussein Mohamed on Sunday refuted claims that the Kenya Kwanza administration had consistently failed to allocate former President Uhuru Kenyatta's Office its budget despite Parliament approving the same on several occasions. According to Hussein, the office was lying unoccupied and Uhuru was free to put in a request to use it at his earliest convenience.

However, in response, the Spokesperson stated that there were channels and frameworks in place for the Former President to access the funds. Previously, Nation had reported that Uhuru had rejected the Nyari office and wanted to use his residence near State House, Nairobi.
