The Founding President of IMANI Africa, , has called for legislative action to prevent "non-performing" politicians from receiving ex-gratia payments after leaving office.
After reports surfaced regarding such payments to outgoing government officials, expressed his concerns over the payment of emoluments to politicians, particularly those classified under Article 71 of the Constitution.
He criticised the poor performance of some of these officials, arguing that they had overseen reckless borrowing that pushed the country into massive debt and worsened the economic situation.
In a post on X on January 2, 2025, highlighted the loss of the ruling government in the recent general elections as a key indicator of their underperformance.
