Cord leader Raila Odinga has claimed that this year's Auditor General report has been delayed due to failure by the Jubilee government to disclose information on the Eurobond money.
Mr Odinga who addressed a seminar on Eurobond Loan at Ufungamano House in Nairobi on Thursday said the Auditor General's report is always released towards the preparation of the new Financial Year budget, but with less than four months to the start of the new Financial Year, the report is yet to be released.
Raila told the seminar which provided a forum for the ventilation of the controversies surrounding the Eurobond that the Jubilee government has the answers to Eurobond questions but have decided not to give to the public.
"The delay in Auditor General's report is because facts on Eurobond money, which that report must carry, are not forthcoming. The Report of the Auditor General is important in the formulation of the Budget, which the current session of Parliament is expected to debate," said Odinga in his speech which he posted on his official website.
The statement read in part: "Strangely but hardly surprising though is the fact that all the explanations offered by the Central Bank of Kenya, the National Treasury and the Private Sector players, there is nothing but continuations of the campaign of lies and cover up over the funds at the expense of the taxpayers.
This is typical of regimes that turn government into some kind of personal business. The special interests then turn government into a game only they can afford to play."
He said in such regimes, the special interests win the deals and make the money while the public foots the bill.
"On January 14, we gave a detailed brief on why we believe the proceeds of Eurobond money have not been fully accounted for. Since then, nothing has changed. Only a trail of denial by the government has followed. The denial and determination to confuse the public has been long and sustained," read the statement.
It proceeded: "When it comes to public finance matters, including receipt of money, conversion of currency or transfer of public funds, the Central Bank of Kenya and no other institution is the final authority. Yet to date, all that the Treasury, the CBK and other organisations have put out are spread sheets and explanations of the same letters whose veracity we dispute and whose numbering even the Treasury has admitted to be faulty."
