Counties grew their own source revenue (OSR) collections by Sh2.47 billion in the first three months of the current financial year, helping the units to keep running amid delays in getting cash disbursements from the National Treasury.

This is based on official data from the Controller of Budget (CoB) that shows the 47 devolved units raised Sh12.68 billion in the period, a 24 percent rise from Sh10.21 billion realised in the same period last year.
