Universities and road agencies lead the list of organizations with substantial unpaid bills
In the realm of Kenyan politics and finance, several significant events have unfolded in recent times.
Firstly, a high-profile court case has emerged involving the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), centred around a Sh235 million graft case. The details of the case are currently under investigation.
Meanwhile, the state of financial affairs within state corporations has raised concerns. As of June this year, it was revealed that over 83% of the money provided by parastatals originating from four ministries - the Ministry of Roads and Transport, Ministry of Water and Sanitation, Ministry of Energy, and Ministry of Health - remained unpaid to businesses.
In a separate development, a group of 600 ex-Stanchart staff has secured a monumental victory, winning a Sh30 billion payout in a dispute with the bank. The details of the dispute are not publicly disclosed, but the outcome has been widely celebrated.
Political alignments have also been shifting. The ODM quartet and the Mt Kenya trio, two influential political groups, have aligned themselves with a broad-based coalition of Cabinet Secretaries (CSs). The exact nature of this alliance is yet to be fully understood.
The political landscape is further complicated by a copyright scandal involving Deputy President William Ruto. The specifics of the scandal are yet to be clarified, but it has certainly added another layer of intrigue to Kenyan politics.
Lastly, the weatherman has predicted a warm and dry end to 2025. Farmers and meteorologists alike will be keeping a close eye on this forecast as they prepare for the upcoming agricultural season.
These developments, while varied, paint a picture of a dynamic and evolving political and economic landscape in Kenya. As more information becomes available, we will continue to bring you updates on these and other stories.
