ASSEMBLY HEARS VIEWS ON KIAMBU COUNTY ALCOHOLIC DRINKS CONTROL (AMENDMENT) BILL

Kiambu: 05/10/2026

The Departmental Committees on Public Service and Administration and Youth, Sports and Social Services today held joint public hearings to collect views from members of the public on the proposed Kiambu County Alcoholic Drinks Control (Amendment) Bill.

The Committees, led by their respective Chairpersons, Hon. Henzron Gachui, MCA for Riabai Ward, and Hon. John Kamande, MCA for Gitothua Ward, engaged social activists, manufacturers’ representatives, retailers, bar owners, Kikuyu elders (Kiama Kia Ma) and other stakeholders drawn from various parts of the County.

During the hearings, the Kiama Kia Ma elders made specific submissions regarding traditional Muratina, explaining that they monitor and regulate those involved in its preparation.

The elders told the Committees that traditional Muratina is fermented rather than distilled, and recommended that its production and consumption in its traditional context should be distinguished from commercially produced alcoholic beverages.

The elders further recommended that traditional Muratina should not be commercialised, arguing that its preparation and use should remain within the traditional and cultural framework under the oversight of the elders.

The proposed amendments, spearheaded by Limuru Central MCA Hon. Nduta Muongi, have been necessitated by continued public concern over the regulation of illicit brews and the need to strengthen measures for addressing rogue alcoholic outlets across the County.

The Committees received both written and oral submissions from members of the public and various stakeholders, including representatives from the National Government.

The views presented covered regulation of alcoholic drinks, control of illicit brews, protection of cultural practices and the need for effective enforcement of the law.

Hon. Gachui commended the groups and individuals who participated in the public hearings for their valuable contributions and recommendations.

He said the Committees would carefully consider the submissions made by the various stakeholders as they deliberate on the proposed amendments.

The two Committees will now proceed to prepare a report containing their findings and recommendations for consideration and possible adoption by the County Assembly.

Ends.

KIAMBU COUNTY RESIDENTS ENGAGE THE COUNTY ASSEMBLY BUDGET COMMITTEE WITH SUBMISSIONS ON THE ANNUAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2027-2028
Thursday, 1st October 2026, 10:00 a.m. - County Assembly Precincts, KIAMBU

The County Assembly Buildings buzzed with civic engagement on October 1, 2026, as residents converged for the public participation exercise on the Kiambu County Annual Development Plan (ADP) for the 2027–2028 financial year. Spearheaded by the Budget and Appropriations Committee and chaired by Hon. Nduta Muongi, the interactive forum provided a platform for citizens, sector representatives, and local leaders to scrutinize proposed allocations and deliberate on grassroots development priorities. The session underscored the Assembly's steadfast commitment to inclusive governance, ensuring that public voices directly influence the county's upcoming fiscal blueprint.
Feedback presented during the deliberations highlighted critical infrastructural and healthcare needs requiring immediate adjustment in the final ADP. Under Infrastructure and Transport, citizens strongly advocated for the prioritization of rural access roads, the maintenance of drainage systems, and the installation of street lighting to stimulate local commerce. Concurrently, deliberations on Health Services emphasized the urgent need for increased budget allocations towards construction of alcohol and drug abuse rehabilitation Centres, essential drug supplies in level 3 & 4 Health Centres, enhanced staffing levels in peripheral dispensaries, and reliable emergency referral transport to safeguard community well-being.
Environmental sustainability and economic empowerment formed another cornerstone of the public submissions. Stakeholders under Water and Environment called for the expansion of community water piping networks, the drilling of strategic boreholes, and strengthened environmental management practices especially garbage collection. Meanwhile, contributions focusing on Agriculture and Cooperatives urged robust support for agricultural value addition, the provision of subsidized farm inputs, and the modernization of local produce markets to uplift rural livelihoods.
Rounding off the thematic priorities, discussions centered on Education and Social Services emphasized the equitable distribution of bursary funds, the development of robust Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) infrastructure, and the establishment of youth empowerment hubs. In her closing remarks, Hon. Nduta Muongi commended the public for their insightful contributions and assured residents that the Budget and Appropriations Committee would meticulously review the memoranda to ensure community aspirations are fully integrated into the final ADP 2027–2028 report.

FINANCE BILL 2026/27 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION WRAPS UP IN KIAMBU

Kiambu, September 30, 2026

The County Assembly of Kiambu has concluded public participation on the Finance Bill 2026/27, following engagements conducted across all 13 sub-counties, giving residents an opportunity to scrutinize the proposed revenue measures and submit their views on the legislative proposal.

The public participation exercise was spearheaded by the Departmental Committee on Finance and Economic Planning, chaired by Nachu MCA, Hon. Fr. George Kimani, with Members of the County Assembly leading engagements with residents in their respective areas.

Residents were given an opportunity to examine the proposed Finance Bill, raise concerns, make recommendations and provide views on the proposed county revenue measures.

The submissions are expected to inform the Committee's consideration of the Bill before it proceeds to the next stage of the legislative process.

The exercise is anchored in the constitutional and statutory requirement for public participation in county governance and public finance. Article 196 of the Constitution of Kenya requires county assemblies to facilitate public participation and involvement in the legislative and other business of the assembly and its committees.

Article 201 further provides that public finance must be guided by the principle of openness and accountability, including public participation in financial matters.

The County Governments Act, 2012 also requires county governments to ensure participation of the people in the exercise of their functions and powers.

The law provides for citizen participation in county governance, including timely access to relevant information and opportunities for the public to contribute to policy and legislative processes.

In addition, the Public Finance Management Act, 2012 provides a statutory framework for the county budget process and requires the County Executive Committee Member for Finance to ensure public participation in that process.

The county budget process includes planning, setting financial and economic priorities, estimating revenues and expenditures, approving budget estimates and enacting legislation necessary to implement the county budget.

For county governments, revenue-raising legislation such as a Finance Bill is therefore an important component of the broader public finance framework.

Under Article 209 of the Constitution, counties may impose rates and other taxes, charges and licensing fees authorised by an Act of Parliament. County revenue measures must consequently operate within the constitutional and statutory framework governing county taxation and public finance.

Following the conclusion of the public participation exercise yesterday, the Finance and Economic Planning Committee is expected to compile, consider and report on the views and recommendations received from residents and table its report before the County Assembly for consideration and adoption.

The process is intended to ensure that residents' views are formally considered before the Finance Bill proceeds through the remaining stages of consideration and enactment by the County Assembly.

MCAS SCRUTINIZE 2027/28 DEVELOPMENT PLAN, RAISE CONCERNS OVER PENDING PROJECTS

KIAMBU, September 23, 2026

Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) today scrutinized the proposed 2027/2028 Annual Development Plan (ADP), while questioning the County Executive over delays in implementing projects contained in the 2026/2027 Development Plan.

The MCAs raised concerns over stalled and delayed projects across several departments as they engaged County Executive officers to assess the proposed ADP and take stock of pending projects.

The scrutiny was conducted by several departmental committees, including the Public Service and Administration Committee, chaired by Hon. Hezron Gachui; the Roads, Public Works and Infrastructure Committee, chaired by Hon. Patrick Mwiberi; the Trade, Tourism and Industrialization Committee, chaired by Hon. Patrick Ngaruiya; and the Health Services Committee, chaired by Hon. Joseph Kamau Muhinja.

Other committees involved were the Education, Science and Research Committee, chaired by Hon. Lawrence Mwaura, and the Ward Performance Projects (Ward Development Fund) Committee, chaired by Hon. Peter Wainaina and represented during the engagements by Hon. Kamau Thumbi.

The Public Service and Administration Committee questioned delays in the proposed establishment of a rehabilitation centre, an alcoholic drinks testing laboratory and screening units at Level IV and V health facilities.

The committee said the County Executive had delayed implementation of the initiatives, prompting members to seek explanations on their status and the reasons for the delays.

The committee also questioned why the County is yet to attain ISO 9001 certification for quality management.

Meanwhile, the Roads, Public Works and Infrastructure Committee raised concerns over delays in road rehabilitation and maintenance works across the county.

The committees are expected to consider the responses provided by the County Executive before proceeding with consideration and approval of the proposed 2027/2028 Annual Development Plan.
