Cord principal Raila Odinga will today (Wednesday) begin his four-day tour of the Coast region.
Speaking on Tuesday evening shortly after arriving at the Moi International Airport, Raila hit out at the Jubilee government over corruption cases that have led to the loss of millions of taxpayers' money.
He accused the government of facilitating theft of public funds through the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS).
“They have now brought something called IFMIS which they are using to steal. That is why we are telling Jubilee to keep off corruption because it has now become their other name,” said Raila.
“When they were done with the National Youth Service (NYS) scandal, they got into the Health Ministry and now they have brought IFMIS to continue stealing money through it,” he said, as quoted by The Nation.
The ODM Party leader's tour is seen as an attempt to counter the Jubilee tide in the county, as it comes two days after Deputy President William Ruto completed his tour of the region.
