The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and national coordinator of the Institute for Social Accountability (TISA) Wanjiru Gikonyo have filed a petition at the High Court seeking to compel the National Treasury and Attorney General Kihara Kariuki to disclose information on Kenya’s debt treaties, agreements, and contracts signed with other states and lending institutions.
In a statement released to the press on Thursday, the commission said it had sought to obtain the information from Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani through a letter dated February 7, but the request was ignored.
