Senate is expected to go into session to discuss revenue allocation formula on Tuesday. [File, Standard]Uasin Gishu Governor Jackson Mandago and his Elgeyo Marakwet counterpart Alex Tolgos have urged the senators to pass the population-based revenue allocation formula currently recommended by the Commission for Revenue Allocation (CRA). Tolgos said that the formula would be of a great boost to counties that have pursued revenue increase but have seen their efforts defeated.
