All Kenyan government workers are guaranteed a housing stipend in accordance with the country’s constitution while they are on the job.
A trustworthy source in Today’s Sunday Nation said that several high-ranking government officials have stopped paying their property taxes and have abandoned the lavish residences that the government had purchased, built, restored, and maintained for them.
The Judiciary has announced its intention to sell the Chief Justice’s former home, which is valued at Sh310 million.
It has also come to light that many high-ranking officials in Kenya, including the Speakers of the Assemblies, the governor of the Central Bank of Kenya, and the heads of the various counties, have lavished millions of dollars on empty houses.
Finally, what are your thoughts on this issue, and do you agree with the government’s decision to provide the top officials with luxurious houses to live in while performing government duties?
