Kirinyaga Woman Representative Jane Maina Njeri has sharply criticized the Kenyan government's spending priorities, highlighting a significant increase in State House operational costs while the crucial education sector faces funding shortages.

• Njeri claims State House expenditure has reached Sh89 billion in the three years since President William Ruto took office, more than double the rate under former president Uhuru Kenyatta.
• The Woman Representative made these remarks in Kirinyaga County while distributing Ksh2.3 million in bursaries.
• Concerns are growing over delayed capitation and infrastructure gaps in schools, amid criticism of government spending on foreign travel and other large public expenditures.
