The Senate Public Investments and Special Funds Committee has uncovered a significant financial scandal in Trans Nzoia County, where senior county officials allegedly awarded themselves over Ksh.30 million in unsecured loans, violating regulations and leaving Ksh.10.6 million outstanding from former employees.

• Over Ksh.30.73 million was disbursed from the Car Loan and Mortgage Fund without collateral, insurance, or documentation, breaching Regulation 16(1).
• The Senate Public Investments and Special Funds Committee, chaired by Senator Eddy Oketch, is spearheading investigations into alleged mismanagement.
• Governor George Natembeya attributed some lapses to gaps in staff discipline and capacity, while the committee has directed the county to secure outstanding loans and recover funds.
