Raila Odinga in Parliament Buildings ahead of Budget Speech

NAIROBI, KENYA: Cord Leader Raila Odinga arrives in Parliament Buildings for lunch with ODM party chairman John Mbadi ahead of the Budget Speech.

Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich is expected to present to Parliament a Sh2.1 trillion Budget, expected to raise more revenues to fund the country’s growing development expenditure while seeking to balance several competing social needs.

The Cabinet has approved plans to spend Sh2.1 trillion in the financial year that begins in just under three weeks.
The spending will be from projected earnings of Sh1.358 trillion, described by some analysts as very ambitious.
