Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has said high debt service has forced the government to make tight budget adjustments on essential public sector development programs.
Speaking during the Heads of Supply Chain and Procurement Forum 2024 in Mombasa, on Thursday, Mudavadi admitted that the government has been slowing down the transformation agenda due to the severity of the debt situation.
He said they were keen to avoid public confrontation with the people, particularly the youth, who have protested against the cost of living and lack of jobs.
"This has slowed down the implementation of the government's Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda, thus stifling our ambitious vision of economic and social transformation," Mudavadi said.
