the allocation is necessary because
under the Presidential Retirement
Benefits Act President Kibaki
assented to before his retirement,
he is supposed to have an office and
staff.
“He is supposed to have an office
under the law. He is entitled to an
office and staff, a full secretariat to
manage his programmes the same
way we did with former President
Moi,” said Mr Kimemia on the
phone.
“I thought you would say (Sh700
million) is too little. How much can
you get a building for? We are set
to buy him a building. We have to
go to the market to advertise and we
have got to pay staff and to buy him
furniture because we don’t have a
building yet.”
OMG this country seems to be soooo rich...we should move it somewhere near a state in the USA or Germany. We waste so much money...if someone is retiring, kwanza at tht age, why would he need an office...beats logic. We built him a house in Mweiga which i hear he might never occupy. now an office?
You cant win, unless you first begin....
