Stalled projects worth more than Sh12.03 billion in 10 counties has exposed the sorry state of development in the devolved units.

Reports by Auditor General Nancy Gathungu have revealed the projects have stalled, been abandoned, fallen behind schedule or left idle after completion.

They include the construction of roads, Early Childhood Education Centres (ECDE) classrooms, governors' and deputy governors’ residences, hospitals and stadiums.

The counties are Nairobi, Kiambu, Baringo, Nakuru, Turkana, West Pokot, Tana River, Kitui, Nyamira and Trans Nzoia.

The revelations in the audit reports for the financial year ended June 30, 2023, put governors, who campaigned for development, on the spot.
