Vihiga County is working to improve its financial accountability practices with assistance from the German Development Cooperation (GIZ). The initiative focuses on training officers within the County’s Department of Finance and Economic Planning to enhance compliance. A GIZ team recently met with Vihiga Governor Wilber Ottichilo to discuss the program’s implementation. The capacity-building program aims to strengthen financial management and oversight within the county government. This collaboration signifies a commitment to good governance and responsible use of public funds. The training is expected to lead to more effective financial planning and reporting in Vihiga County. Further details of the program’s scope and duration were not immediately available.
