Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana has cautioned a Senate committee against being used by malicious people to taint his good reputation.
Kibwana accused the Senate’s watchdog team of accepting documents that are not procedurally correct before the House.
The governor was speaking on Tuesday at the Makueni County Assembly when he appeared before the committee to answer questions over alleged loss of Sh1.4 billion through fraudulent procurement, conflict of interest and money laundering by this administration.
Senators queried the quality of the Auditor-General’s report that gave the Kibwana administration a clean bill of health in the 2017/18 Financial Year report.
“I am beginning to question the rigour and the seriousness the auditors who were sent to Makueni County had. I am beginning to think that is a lazy report,” said committee chair Moses Kajwang’.
