Senator Okiya Omtatah wants President William Ruto to show proof he pays for the State House church project from his personal wallet. The Busia lawmaker questions whether anyone can build religious structures on government property. He argues that State House land belongs to the public and has specific legal purposes.

Omtatah points to 3.5 billion shillings approved through Parliament's latest budget addition last month. He suspects the church money gets buried under vague spending labeled as other expenses. The senator demands clear records showing where every coin comes...
