Increase Our Funding Or We Push For Referendum, Governors Threatens UhuRuto.

The Government have been put on notice to  reconsider the amount of money going to counties or governors  push for a referendum over revenue allocation. Secretary of Council of Governors Peter Munya has said.

Munya was speaking during the Meru County Education Day at Kaaga Girls High School. According to the outspoken governor, Meru county was only allocated Sh5 billion from the National Government of which 70% is meant for salaries and only Sh1.8 billion for all the rest of the sectors.

He said if Jubilee wants to puncture the opposition’s call for a referendum, the Government must increase funding for counties, because “all counties have tasted development and nobody wants a reversal of gains made.

The constitution allows a minimum of 15 per cent of the national revenue be allocated to county governments.
