Treasury CS John Mbadi told government workers in Kisumu that money is tight, and the administration needs to cut waste while holding people accountable for how they spend public funds. He said corruption basically kills any chance of decent service delivery, and the two things can't exist together. The cabinet secretary backed a zero-fault audit program that's supposed to catch problems early without turning into a blame game.
Mbadi wants ministries to stop burning cash on unnecessary stuff like excessive foreign trips, and he's putting state corporation bosses on notice that they'll actually have to answer for their results. He praised workers for handling heavy assignments but made it clear that standards need to go up even more going forward because Kenya's budget situation is strained.
