Yatani to read Sh3.3 trillion budget two months early

Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani will read the Sh3.31 trillion budget for the financial year starting July two months earlier than traditional time, paving the way for lawmakers to approve expenditure before their term ends.

Mr Yatani confirmed on Monday he will deliver the Budget Statement for the financial year 2022/23 on April 7, marking the last expenditure plan for President Uhuru Kenyatta who will leave office after the August 9 polls.
