Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua bore the heaviest brunt of recurrent budget cuts at the top-level government for the current fiscal year, with his office losing Sh1.8 billion, mainly in travel and hospitality.
In the first Supplementary Budget for the 2024/25 fiscal year, while the Treasury slashed Sh1.87 billion from the DP’s planned recurrent spend, the President’s office had a Sh647 million cut, and Sh419 million was slashed from Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi’s office.
