As the country reels from the shocking revelations of how Sh9.4 billion was irregularly funnelled from the e-Citizen services platform by the Auditor General, a scrutiny of the damning report has unearthed how the funds were irregularly diverted and paid out to ‘alien’ companies and private entities.

The report, tabled before the National Assembly Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on Tuesday, told of how the digital service platform may have led to the loss of an accumulative Sh9.4 billion and how it was used to unlawfully collect Sh2.6 billion from Kenyans in convenience fees for using the platform.
