MCAs in Nakuru County are up in arms over the delay of their November salaries.
Speaking outside the county assembly on Tuesday, the MCAs said that they normally receive their salaries on the 25th of every month but this time round they are still yet to receive their November's salaries going into the month of December.
Kaptembwa MCA Daniel Ambale told the media that the Controller of Budget and Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) ware ´playing games´ with them over the issue of their salaries.
Most of the MCAs now fear that their properties may be taken away by banks due to unpaid loans.
“This is a very serious matter and if we are not paid soon, we might end up losing most of our properties for failure of paying our mortgages on time,” said Ambale.
Kabazi MCA, Joseph Ngugi, agreed with Ambale and urged saying that the Controller of Budget and CRA to honour its obligation and pay them the way promptly.
“We still have not received any formal communication on why our salaries are being delayed. Most of us depend on these salaries and we have lots of responsibilities to take care of,” Ngugi added.
