Garissa County in Turmoil as Women Rep Udgoon Exposes Governor Nathif’s Corruption Scandal; Protection of Rapists
The Women Representative has vowed to hold Governor Nathif accountable, emphasising that history will judge her harshly if she remains silent. In a scathing remark, she also revealed that the governor is allegedly shielding a rapist because the individual is a doctor working for him.
Massive corruption by governors in the larger NEP regions is known and has been well documented. What’s new is that women leadership is now standing up to the traditional looting.
Garissa County Women Representative Hon. Udgoon Siyat has accused Governor Nathif Jama and his administration of gross negligence, wanton corruption, and a dire governance situation. The MP claims that the governor has been lining his pockets and those of his cronies while the county’s health system remains in a deplorable state.
Hon. Udgoon has questioned the allocation and expenditure of billions of shillings meant for the county’s development, pointing out the absence of chief officers in departments, which has allowed Governor Nathif to act with impunity. Moreover, despite GAWASCO receiving substantial funding from both the county and external organisations, the water scarcity issue persists, with dry taps across the region serving as a testament to the deeply entrenched corruption within Governor Nathif’s leadership.
“We have hospitals in a grotesque state, lacking essential drugs and amenities. Yet, Governor Nathif has consistently ignored the massive pilferage of public funds under his watch,” Hon. Udgoon stated.

“We cannot expect righteous deeds from a man who protects a rapist. The funds meant for the great people of Garissa County must be used prudently. Accountability is a must,” Hon. Udgoon declared.
The looting in Garissa is really killing the hopes of many of ever rising above the poverty line, while the governor and his cronies are erecting properties everywhere at the expense of the poor people.
