📢 REGIONAL VIRTUAL BUDGET CAFÉ | BPS 2027
Rift Valley Budget Hub invites you to a regional virtual Budget Café to discuss the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) 2027 and prepare a submission.
🔗 Register in advance here: us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi…
The FY 2025/2026 figures for 11 Rift Valley counties show low development budget absorption. The means delayed water projects, health facilities, stalled infrastructure; wastage of public resources; rising project costs; and communities waiting longer for services.
HAPPY MASHUJAA DAY
Today, we celebrate the courage, sacrifice, & resilience of the heroes and heroines who shaped our nation and continue to inspire a brighter future. Let us build on the legacy of our heroes by creating opportunities, empowering communities for a stronger Kenya.
The CGBIRR FY 2025/2026 report reveals mixed own source revenue performance across the Rift Valley region.
Revenue shortfalls can mean delays in essential services, stalled projects, underfunded budget, pending bills, and heavier reliance on national transfers.
At #PFC2026, under the theme “Financing What Matters,” RVBH joined regional budget hubs and stakeholders to reflect on building a more resilient, inclusive & accountable PFM system.
Meaningful citizen participation is about ensuring citizens’ priorities shape decisions & budgets
Some reflections:
Debt: About KES 42 of every KES 100 collected goes to debt servicing. How much fiscal space remains for the services citizens need?
Devolution:Counties deliver about 90% of public services but receive about 20% of the budget. Resources must follow functions.

@cedgg_2001 , as host of the @RiftBudgetHub , paid a courtesy call to the @NakuruCountyGov Directorate of Health Services, where the team met with the Chief Officer, Public Health, and her team to discuss the planned tracking of Primary Health Care (PHC) funds. The engagement focused on examining PHC budget allocations, disbursements and expenditure, as well as public participation, transparency and accountability in the management of health financing.
Following the discussions, the teams agreed on three health facilities, Miroreni, Arĩmi and Rhonda Health Centres, where the social accountability exercise will be undertaken. The process will also gather citizens' perspectives on how health financing decisions are affecting service delivery, with findings expected to inform dialogue with the County Health Management Team and citizen advocacy for improved health financing.
