The State infrastructure agency in charge of building the multi-billion shilling Lamu port has been accused of disregarding a presidential directive to sponsor 1,000 students.
The Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia (Lapsset) is on the spot for misallocating Sh57 million meant to educate 1,000 students from Lamu County as directed by the President. Auditor- General Edward Ouko accused the Lapsset management of spending a paltry Sh1.8 million to sponsor ten students who are non-residents of Lamu County.
