Lawmakers this week piled pressure on treasury demanding to be paid a total of ksh.3.3 billion (32 Million USD) between September 2017 and March 2018 when they claim their term in office will come to an end says KTN The case filed by lawyer Dismas Wambola in court argues that the MPs cannot earn money that they did not work for. “The payments shall be against public policy since it will not be commensurate with the public wage bill and the national economy. The same will not serve any public interest but personal and selfish interests of the MPs.” the judge was told On Tuesday, Treasury gave in to pressure from Parliament to form a team to determine the lawmakers’ gratuity amounting to millions of shillings each as their term lapses. The Constitution allows the 416 MPs both in Senate and National Assembly to pocket Sh11,011,200 (106,389 USD)each as gratuity for their service once their term ends on election day, according to the Star.]]>
