Okoa Uchumi and TISA launched 'The People's Audit: Reclaiming Kenya's Fiscal Sovereignty' on Monday in Nairobi, blaming ballooning public debt—from KSh 2.4 trillion in 2014 to KSh 12 trillion by late 2025—on opaque borrowing, procurement flaws, and elite priorities. Debt servicing now claims over two-thirds of government revenues, starving health, education, and counties of funds. Speakers like Sheila Masinde called for citizen oversight to fight 'odious debt,' with the report aiming to influence 2026 elections amid rising debt distress.
