Narok County is facing serious allegations of corruption involving public funds.
A whistleblower has accused the County Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Naingisa, of authorizing irregular payments to several companies allegedly linked to him.
Payment on Non-existent Footbridge Project
The most concerning allegation involves a payment of Ksh. 18 million made last August to Device Building and Civil Works Ltd, a company allegedly owned by Mr. Naingisa.
This payment was reportedly for the construction of a footbridge in Kenol. However, according to the whistleblower, the footbridge does not exist, and the national government is currently undertaking its construction.
Repeated Offenses and Lack of Investigation
These alleged irregularities are not isolated incidents.
The whistleblower further claims that Betshal Ltd, another company reportedly linked to Mr. Naingisa, has been paid over 16 times by the County government for undelivered services.
Additionally, M&S Ltd, yet another company allegedly owned by the CO Finance, is accused of receiving Ksh. 14 million yesterday, 12th March 2024, for motorcycles that were never delivered and are not expected to be delivered.
Despite these concerning allegations, the whistleblower claims that reports filed with both the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have not been acted upon.
This inaction raises questions about potential collusion between these investigative bodies and Mr. Naingisa.
Urgent Need for Investigation
The seriousness of these allegations necessitates a swift and thorough investigation.
The authorities, particularly the EACC and DCI, must act impartially and transparently to investigate these claims and ensure that those found culpable are held accountable. The public deserves to have faith in the institutions tasked with safeguarding public funds and preventing corruption.
