I would not see any problem with this if its meant to market the county and hope it brings business to the people and the county gets the benefits from the taxes paid by these traders.But since this might not be the case, then there is a problem.

(The best thing a journalist could have done is get the supplier of the said wheelbarrow and buy the same and see how much it costs.This would have brought shame to Lusaka( if the price is less than 109,000)

You see, a supply to the government is never at the prevailing market rate. A number of reasons have been advanced on the reason why this is the case.Delay in payment, the complexity of the procurement process among many others.But me and you know the prices are designed to oil the palms of the stakeholders. The Jubilee gament have rolled the e-procurement to the counties to reign on this.The intention was to cup all prices based on the PPOA's price guide.The lords of counties got wind of this and they have rejected it.

Nyeri has also bought Kshs 1.3 million beds. It seems the eating plague is evenly distributed across the counties. Hii ugaatuzi itatumaliza.
