NMS director-general Major General Mohamed Badi.
The NMS team led by seven senior military officers, with Major General Mohamed Badi as director-general, came to office on March 17 to take up Nairobi County’s four key functions of health, transport, public works and planning.
Out of the budget, the NMS is to spend Sh217.1 million in offsetting administrative expenses, Sh46 million on city planning and development, Sh38.5 million for transport while public works get Sh1 million.
The NMS has in recent weeks locked horns with Governor Mike Sonko’s administration over budgetary allocations for the next financial year starting July 1.
Last week’s Supplementary Budget came at a time Gen Badi has been complaining that the NMS has been struggling financially.
