Wake Up, Bomet: Calls for Accountability Over Ngaaf Funds
Bomet County is once again under the spotlight following allegations of corruption and mismanagement in the Ngaaf office. In September 2024, Citizen TV aired a report exposing harassment and embezzlement linked to funds meant for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) and affirmative action groups. Beneficiaries say they never received the allocated money, yet the office continues to hold a budget, raising serious questions about where the funds have gone.
The scandal has left residents frustrated, as the Ngaaf leadership has remained largely silent. No board meetings have been convened since the revelations, and there is no physical office for citizens to seek redress. Communities are demanding answers: who received the funds, what projects were executed, and why has there been no accountability? Advocacy groups argue that the continued inaction amounts to a betrayal of public trust and a denial of critical support for marginalized groups.
Local leaders and citizens are now calling for urgent reforms. Transparency, oversight, and full disclosure of the Ngaaf accounts are demanded to restore public confidence. Activists insist that without action, corruption will continue to choke development in the county. The message is clear: Bomet residents will not remain silent, and it is time to reclaim both accountability and their future.
