Thursday, March 13, 2025 - Kiharu MP, Ndindi Nyoro, has suffered a major political and financial blow following his removal as the chair of the influential Budget and Appropriations Committee (BAC).
His ouster strips him of crucial perks, influence, and
privileges associated with one of the most powerful positions in the National
Assembly.
As BAC chair, Nyoro earned Ksh 15,000 per sitting, capped at
Ksh 240,000 per month, translating to an annual maximum of Ksh 2.88 million.
While he still receives his MP salary, this additional
income stream is now gone.
Beyond direct allowances, the position offered significant
financial leverage.
The BAC plays a crucial role in national budget formulation,
giving its chair substantial influence over budget allocations, expenditure
oversight, and financial negotiations.
Nyoro’s removal effectively cuts him off from these
high-level fiscal discussions, diminishing his power to direct resources to
strategic areas.
The BAC is one of Parliament’s most influential committees,
responsible for scrutinizing and approving Government expenditure.
As its chair, Nyoro held significant sway over public fund
allocations, engaged directly with policymakers, and had privileged access to
top Government officials, including Cabinet Secretaries and technocrats.
Nyoro has been replaced by Alego Usonga MP, Sam Atandi.
