🚨BREAKING: KSh 8.2 billion that could have built schools, equipped hospitals, fixed roads, or supplied life-saving medicine will instead be paid out as penalties and interest by KeNHA.

Not because of a natural disaster. Not because of war. But because bills to contractors and suppliers were not paid on time.

Reports from the Controller of Budget and the Auditor-General show KeNHA incurred about KSh 8.2 billion in interest and late-payment penalties for the financial year ending June 2025.

At the same time, project disputes have pushed its contingent liabilities to KSh 31.7 billion.

Every shilling spent on these penalties is a shilling that won't reach a classroom, a hospital, a rural road, or another essential public service.

Then Kenyans are told there is "no money."
