Last updated: 17 September 2026. The National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) pays for bursaries, classrooms and other local projects. This page tracks Kibra’s share.

Allocated and released, by financial year

  • 2019/20: allocated Sh137.37m, released Sh137.37m
  • 2020/21: allocated Sh137.09m, released Sh119.0m
  • 2021/22: allocated Sh137.09m, released Sh115.09m
  • 2022/23: allocated Sh145.09m, released Sh145.09m
  • 2023/24: allocated Sh175.36m, released Sh189.76m (more than allocated; the records do not say why)
  • 2024/25: allocated Sh179.44m, released Sh137.44m so far
  • 2025/26: allocated Sh192.61m, released Sh106.0m (about 55%), the last payment on 16 March 2026
  • 2026/27: released Sh35.0m so far (Sh20m on 12 August, Sh15m on 2 September)

The Board’s data still shows Kibra’s 2026/27 allocation as Sh192.61m, the same as last year. But Capital FM reports the national fund rose to Sh61.8 billion this year, with every constituency getting Sh8.8m to Sh11.3m more. The Kibra figure is probably not yet updated.

What the Auditor-General found

  • 2021/22 (qualified): Sh49.85m sent to schools with no contracts, payment or completion certificates. At Kibra Technical College, Sh24.09m was transferred and the contractor paid Sh31.42m, but the building was half done and the contractor off site in March 2023. (KNN report)
  • 2020/21 (qualified): Sh7m sent to Toi TVET Institute in October 2020 with no sign of work 17 months later.
  • 2019/20 (clean): but Sh28.84m of approved projects were not carried out.
  • 2022/23 onwards: no published audit found. (KNN report)

Projects the Board lists

  • Mbagathi Secondary School, Sh45m (2015/16 to 2017/18)
  • Raila Educational Centre Secondary, Sh18.98m (2014/15 to 2016/17)
  • Shadrack Kimalel Secondary, Sh14m (2014/15)
  • Toi Primary, 24 classrooms, Sh9.6m (2018/19)
  • Kibera Primary, 51-seat bus, Sh7m (2017/18)

Still unanswered

How much of each year’s money went to bursaries, and how many students got them. KNN has asked. Kibra NG-CDF office: DC’s compound, Kibera Drive, +254 711 278 334.
