The Office of Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has exhausted nearly half of its annual recurrent budget within the first quarter of the current financial year, coinciding with heightened political activity around the nationwide empowerment programmes that he has spearheaded in recent months.
New data published by the Treasury shows that the Deputy President’s office had spent Sh1.34 billion by the close of September 2025, which translates to 44.9 percent of its annual recurrent allocation of Sh2.97 billion.
