15 Kenyan MPs Under Pressure to Return Sh27 Million Allowance for Canceled US Trip

They need to return it with interest and penalties.

Almost Ksh 2M to buy Gucci bags and miniskirts to continue showing their polygomous husbands some thigh while toddler girls, teenage girls, women and our cucus continue to be raped and sexually assaulted. No push to have rape cases fully investigated in a timely manner. Mothers are giving birth at home afraid their babies will be stolen while these fat MPs sit and watch. What a huge disappointment these women in parliament have been!

Talk about getting a check before you do the JOB!

The MPs shouldn’t have difficulties refunding public funds. How did they spend the money while they never traveled? Unpaid money will be subject compounded interest rates.

I get sad...heart broken when I read such stories. What extravagance is this from s country sinking in debt and incompetence. On the one hand we are acting "catch" with corruption...while the same leaders are cleaning whatever is being by those other "faceless" leaders. Don't people fear God, don't people have hearts? Per diems at obscene rates...and what is this conferences that 15 members have to attend? Who okays these trips? These damn leaders, God avenge for us, may their families pay for these extravagances and corruption to the last drop of their blood. Hopeless!

This is an affront to hardworking taxpayers. We did not elect them to behave like this. For all we know,this trip could have been just avacation on tax payers back. Hardly do the attendants on returning are asked to account for the knowledge or experience acquired on these foreign trips.I refuse to assume that these Mpigs dont know that unused funds for a "specific project" that was unfulfilled should return the given funds.Not only that, certainly there has to be something in their policies that states something to that effect.So refusal,or delay is tantamount to giving the taxpayers the finger...
Now why are they refusing? First of all they are setting avery bad example.Why are they being recalcitrant,now that they have the cash in their pockets. Cash that is not theirs.These funds should have been refunded as soon as the trip had been cancelled.SHAME ON THEM. Vote them out come 2022.They have shown us who they work for- their tummies.

I'm still trying to figure out that $1200+ per day number and exactly why they spent the money prior to the NY trip. Does GoK still pick up the hotel, airfare and other transport expenses. Even in NYC that would be exorbitant. No wonder Kenya is broke.

Deduct the full allowance from their salaries. It is that easy.

It's very simple.Dont pay them their few months salaries!Wanjinga sisi we have supposed to b on the streets demanding they resign or return the money but wr busy bin infected to support useless beba baba ikulu (bbi) nonsense.Wacha tufinywe kabisa mpaka ile siku tutapata kichwa.Wanjinga sisi we should shut up n continue bin facked mpaka the time we will elect beta leaders.

Only in Kenya do there get the money upfront. Everywhere else is u know ur per diem, u use ur own money and then provide receipts for reimbursement afterwards. Alternatively, they get issued with govt purchase cards which they would still need to file expense reports upon return. This bullshit of front loading the money is just corruption and utter incompetence at work.

Is this not the same trip then and now and forever governor sonko is accused of sponsoring the wife and daughter to this trip last year??And he is being investigated as below but am sure the same accusations will rest in peace. Kenya my motherland....when will we ever learn...the rich get richer and the poor get pooooorer....

Governor Sonko’s wife Primrose Mbuvi and daughter Saumu Mbuvi are said to have spent Sh2.4 million during the trip to New York in 2018, according to Kitusuru MCA Alvin Palapala. The two attended the UN’s 62nd Commission on Status of Women conference from March 12th to 23rd.
