On November 1, 2019, a report tabled in Parliament revealed that the Treasury had not released the full amounts meant for development projects in 81 constituencies.
The National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) status report showed that only 109 constituencies received their full allocation of Sh109.04 million each, while the others did not.
Cherangany was the only constituency to receive less than half its allocation, at Sh30 million, as the Treasury held onto Sh4.1 billion meant for constituency projects in the last financial year.
Members of Parliament had called on the Treasury to fast-track the release of funds to the 290 constituencies to prevent project delays.
NG-CDF exclusively supports projects under the functions of the national government, including schools.
