Nairobi — Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga has been tasked to explain why the County failed to reach its Sh1 billion own-source revenue for Financial Year 2019-2020.

Kahiga stated that the County had not integrated its systems with the customers hence the deficit.

He spoke while appearing before the Senate County Public Accounts and Investments Commitee to respond to queries raised by the Auditor General.
