KIPRONO JUSTICE KORIR June, 2015 iii ABSTRACT As per the The Constitution of Kenya, 2010, several functions were devolved from the National government to the County government. Each financial year the National government through The Commission on Revenue Allocation allocates funds to all the 47 counties in the Republic of Kenya. Allocations of revenue to the county governments are disbursed each financial year for recurrent expenditure and development funds. Each county government aims to spend these development funds to bring meaningful development in all the county assembly wards under its jurisdiction. Spending these development funds and their fair distribution to all county assembly wards in a county is a great challenge. The need to bring accountability, transparency and check corruption on development funds requires monitoring and evaluation of these funds on development projects using Geospatial technology, a trend gaining momentum in the current world. The study demonstrated the use of Geospatial Technology (GIS- Geographic Information System) to monitor and evaluate the use of county development funds in a county. The road projects that the County Government of Kericho developed during the first half of the FY 2014/2015 were mapped and their distribution and the amount of funds used were determined. A geodatabase was created and analysis on the distribution of funds to county assembly wards within a county was done. Queries were developed to generate required information for monitoring and evaluation of county development funds in the county. The procedures were discussed in displaying the results of GIS. Generation of maps, reports, charts, and graphs from the created database for analysis process reveals that some county assembly wards were underfunded as compared to others. Also some county assembly wards received more road project funds than others hence there were uneven distribution on the number of road projects carried out. The analysis process gives the County government monitoring and evaluation reports and better visualization mechanism for better decision making. The project study noted that GIS and Remote Sensing is a powerful tool as it combines both the spatial and attribute data for monitoring and evaluating use of development funds. It was recommended that the system be upgraded to cover all the other devolved departments in the county and eventually to all the counties in the Republic of Kenya. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION ……………………………………….……………………...i DEDICATION……………………………………………………………........ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT…………………………………………………......iii ABSTRACT………………………………………………………………...….iv LIST OF FIGURES………………………………………………….……….viii LIST OF TABLES…………………………………………………………......x LIST OF ACRONYMS……………………………………………………......xi CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1.0 Introduction….………………………………………………………….…....1 1.1 Background..………………………………………………………….............1 1.2 Problem statement..…………………………………………………….……..2 13 Justification..…………………………………………………………………..2 1.4 Objectives.…………………………………………………………………....4 1.4.1 Main objective .………………………………………………………..…...4 1.4.2 Specific objectives.…………………………………………………….…...4 1.5 Scope and limitation of the study……………….…………………….….......4 1.6 Organization of the report.……………………………………………….......5 CHAPTER TWO: LITERATURE REVIEW 2.0 Literature review ……………………………………………………….…….6 2.1 Study area ………………………………………………………….......6 2.2 Public Works and Transport ……………………………………………........9 2.2.1 Kericho Road Network …………………………………………………...10 2.2.2 County roads ……………………………………………………………...11 2.2.3 Department’s Allocation and Budgetary Performance……………………11 2.3.0 Geographic Information System………………………………………......11 v 2.3.1 Definition of GIS………………………………………………………….11 2.3.2 Use of Geospatial Information………………………………………........11 2.3.3 The power of geospatial data……...………………………………….......13 2.3.4 Open spending and transparency …………………………………….…..13 2.4.0 Monitoring and Evaluation …………………………………………...….14 2.4.1 Monitoring …………………………………………………………….....14 2.4.1.1 Common types of monitoring ……………………………………….....15 2.4.2 Evaluation ………………………………………………………………..15 2.5.0 Role of GIS in monitoring and evaluation………………………………..16 2.5.1 Project planning…………………………………………………………..16 2.5.2 Estimates …………………………………………………………………16 2.5.3 Monitoring and Evaluation………………………………………….........16 2.5.4 Public information …………………………………………………….....17 2.5.5 Government/donor reporting……………………………………………..17 2.6.0 Geo-database design…….……………………………………………......17 2.6.1 Types of geo-databases…………………………………………………..17 CHAPTER THREE: MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY 3.0 Methodology..………………………………..…………………….……...19 3.1 User needs assessment……..…………………………………………...…19 3.2 Tools and equipment ……………………………………………………...20 3.2.1 Hardware ………………………………………………………………..20 3.2.2 Software…………………………………………………………………20 3.3 Data………………………………………………………………………..21 3.3.1.

  • Kenya General Elections, 2017
    FINAL REPORT REPUBLIC OF KENYA General Elections 2017 REPUBLIC OF KENYA European Union Election Observation Mission FINAL REPORT General Elections 2017 January 2018 This report contains the findings of the EU Election Observation Mission (EOM) on the general elections 2017 in Kenya. The EU EOM is independent from the European Union’s institutions, and therefore this report is not an official position of the European Union. KEY CONCLUSIONS OF THE EU EOM KENYA 2017 1. The Kenyan people, including five million young people able to vote for the first time, showed eagerness to participate in shaping the future of their country. However, the electoral process was damaged by political leaders attacking independent institutions and by a lack of dialogue between the two sides, with escalating disputes and violence. Eventually the opposition withdrew its presidential candidate and refused to accept the legitimacy of the electoral process. Structural problems and specific electoral issues both need to be addressed meaningfully to prevent problems arising during future elections. 2. Electoral reform needs to be carried out well in advance of any election, and to be based on broad consensus. The very late legal amendments and appointment of the leadership of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) before the 2017 elections put excessive pressure on the new election administration. 3. Despite efforts to improve the situation, there was a persistent lack of trust in the IEBC by the opposition and other stakeholders, demonstrating the need for greater independence and accountability as well as for sustained communication and more meaningful stakeholder consultation. There was improved use of technology, but insufficient capacity or security testing.

  • Ethnobotanical Survey of Medicinal Plants Used for Treatment of Malaria by Kipsigis People in Kericho County, Kenya
    IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) e-ISSN:2278-3008, p-ISSN:2319-7676. Volume 13, Issue 4 Ver. VI (Jul – Aug 2018), PP 24-30 www.iosrjournals.org Ethnobotanical Survey Of Medicinal Plants Used For Treatment Of Malaria By Kipsigis People In Kericho County, Kenya. Bwogo ChepchumbaPacifica,Dr. Benson Nyanchongi, Dr. Rael Masai Kisii University, Corresponding Author: Bwogochepchumba Pacifica Abstract: Background: Ethnobotanical pharmacopoeia is importantly used in intervention of disease and need arises for documentation and preservation of tradition medicinal knowledge to boost the discovery of new drugs. Due to the emergence of drug resistance to malaria, there is a high possibility of development of resistance to ACT (that is the first line of treatment), thus a need for identification and development of new and novel therapeutic approaches. Herbs offer an opportunity for discovery and development of new chemically diverse antimalarial agents, however little documentation has been done. The first objective of the present study was to identify and document preferred medicinal plants used for treatment of malaria in Kericho East Sub- County. Methods: Field research was conducted in six Sub- Counties of Kericho County in Kenya namely Kipkelion East, Kipkelion West, Kericho West, Kericho East, Sigowet/Soin and Bureti. We randomly sampled 120 interviewees according to age, gender, occupation and level of education. Plant use data was collected through semi-structured questionnaires; transect walks, oral interviews and focus groups discussions. Voucher specimens of all cited botanic species were collected and deposited at National museum herbarium, Nairobi Botany department. Results Twenty medicinal plant species were yielded from the informants which are used to treat different symptoms and signs of malaria including; headache, fever, diarrhea, stomach-ache.
