President William Ruto and Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua have burst their full-year budget in seven months, official data show, amid austerity plans aimed at reversing a past trend of borrowing to fund government operations.
The latest data published by Treasury Cabinet Secretary Njuguna Ndung’u indicate that the Executive Office of the President spent Sh9.09 billion in the period through January against an original full-year estimate of Sh8.64 billion.
