President William Ruto has endorsed an additional Sh65.9 billion allocation to county governments, aiming to align devolved functions with adequate resources.

• The proposed Sh65.9 billion is part of recommendations from the Intergovernmental Relations Technical Committee (IGRTC) and the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA).
• President William Ruto emphasized that resources must follow transferred functions for devolution to succeed.
• This move comes as counties are already set to receive Sh503.5 billion in the 2026/27 financial year, with the equitable share increasing.
