Prime Minister Raila Odinga
Prime Minister Raila Odinga has never earned
his salary since the formation of coalition government in March 2008, Gem MP
Jakoyo Midiwo has revealed.
Speaking
on a local FM radio station on Tuesday, Midiwo who is also the Government Chief
Whip said the PM has not received his salary since the formation of coalition
government in year 2008.
“The
Prime Minister has not been able to receive his salary because it does not
exist,”Midiwo said.
Midiwo
blamed some officials at the Treasury he did not name for derailing the allocation
of Raila’s salary.
“It
is unfortunate that nobody has cared over the Prime Minister’s salary yet he
has held the position since the beginning of the coalition government,” Midiwo
said.
He
said there is need for the PM to be paid since he is also a chief government principal
like President Mwai Kibaki.
How
does he survive without a salary for more than 4 years?
