One man one shilling in summary

shocks

whoever came up with that 1 man 1 shilling messed up on the PR side. I saw the formulae is not just based on population, it includes other things like poverty, transport network, centrality of the county hqs in the county........ Opposition to the new formula just took that name and ran away with it.

One man one shilling is mentioned more by Central Kenya politicians than anyone else. They messed it themselves. I also looked at the formula and the truth is the marginalized counties zitaumia.

The new formulae is founded on good logic, the only allocations that are slashed are those of poverty from 18% to 14% and Equal share from 26% to 20%, it retains the share based on land mass at 8% and fiscal responsibility at 2% and replaces the population metric with Urbans Services (5%) Health Services (17%), Agriculture services (10%), other county services (18%) and county roads (4%).

The formulae isnt even a radical shift, it would have been seismic if they had scrapped the poverty factor entirely and replaced it with a productivity factor based on Gross County Product to encourage governors to grow their local economies rather than guarantee them billions on the basis of poverty which infact seems to encourage them to maintain the status quo.
