The family of a UDA Member of Parliament (MP) spent the night of Friday, June 16 out in the cold after they found that a CS had occupied their Karen home.

Speaking to the media, the MP's Wife Mary Muriu claimed that while they were out of the country, the CS moved into their maisonette.

A contractor, whom she had sent to clean the house ahead of their return found the home under heavy police security.

"We travelled to America for our daughter's graduation and when I came back, the house was occupied," Muriu stated.

However, she revealed that she and her husband planned to sell the house to the CS but had not reached an agreement on the price.

Muriu claimed that the house was to be renovated before the sale once they agreed on terms.

"The CS came to my home with an offer of Ksh90 million but we told her that the least we could take was Ksh120 million.

"There is no agreement signed whatsoever, and neither is there any transaction. This house still belongs to me and my husband," she stated.

The MP demanded that the CS evacuate the house immediately. The CS is currently out of the country.

University and college students are among the greatest beneficiaries of the new budget set to be read out in Parliament by Treasury CS Njuguna Ndung'u.

In the first budget under President William Ruto, the government proposes to double the allocation to the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB).

This will see the fund allocated Ksh30 billion, up from Ksh15 billion in the previous financial year.

To realise the transition into the CBC system, the government budgeted Ksh25.5 billion to go towards junior secondary schools (JSS) capitation.

This is an increase of Ksh10.5 billion from the 2022/23 budget.

In total, Ruto's administration will dedicate Ksh630 billion-27.4% of its Ksh3.63 trillion budget-to education.
