Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka has asked accountants to embrace professionalism when discharging their work. Speaking at Sawan Hotel, in Bungoma town, during the closing workshop for Western region accountants (ICPAK), Lusaka acknowledged the huge role played by the accountants in the country, urging them to serve diligently. ‘Finance is the engine of every organization. Remain steadfast in your work. Don’t be compromised, you’ll be crucified for corruption,’ Lusaka cautioned. He hailed devolution saying it has played a major role in empowering Counties by growing the local economy. ‘The fruits of devolution are clearly evident. We can now promote our economy by utilizing local facilities for workshops,’ he observed. The governor further noted that, finance is the goose with golden eggs that needs to be safeguarded at all costs. ‘Audit starts and ends with finance. Any missing details can easily land one in the arms of the law,’ he emphasized.
