The departing Treasury Secretary, Cabinet Secretary Njuguna Ndung’u, offered notes on some issues affecting the country.
He highlighted the presence of ghost workers and pensioners as a significant issue, calling for their identification and removal to cut unnecessary costs.
He has advocated for the integration of government payrolls with both IFMIS and KRA.
The current education funding model is unsustainable. The current model allocates funds to non-existent schools.
Education consumes a large portion of the national budget without yielding corresponding results.
The government has warned that it cannot afford to maintain its current level of spending without significant restructuring.
Ghost workers, false pensioners, and sending money to ghost schools (Njuguna Ndung’u) are all problems for the government.
Former Treasury CS Njuguna Ndung’u says the government is struggling with ghost workers, false pensioners, and a broken education model, with taxpayer money going to non-existent schools among the top graft channels rocking the Kenya Kwanza government.
