Women county representatives, WCR championed for affirmative action social development fund (AASDF) and the treasury allocated Sh2billion towards the fund.
WCR claims they will use the fund to support women, youths and marginalized groups. They said that since the court ruled that constituency development fund, CDF is unconstitutional, they should be given the funds to support youths who have dropped out of school and also to help and support recovery of sexual and gender-based violence survivors, orphans and vulnerable children.
This fund is so irrelevant. With Uwezo fund as well as the annual budgetary allocations to counties, we do not need AASDF.
This is just a selfish move by greedy legislators who are eying the money for their own selfish gains. Instead of recovering stolen youth fund and making full use of Uwezo fund, these legislators are adding more money to be stolen again in the name of affirmative action.
We thought women would bring sanity in our corrupt nation but they have let us down big time.
