Isiolo County is currently embroiled in a controversy following the unauthorized disclosure of its payroll records.
County Secretary Dathe Boru has publicly accused Senator Fatuma Dullo of orchestrating the leak, alleging that the senator’s actions are politically motivated and intended to undermine the county administration.
In a video statement, Boru expressed his concerns over the breach, emphasizing that the payroll data was confidential and its release could have serious implications for county operations.
He stated, “The unauthorized disclosure of our payroll records is a serious breach of confidentiality and trust.
We have initiated a special audit to verify our pay records and are conducting a thorough human resource verification process, including the validation of academic credentials and a headcount.”
Boru further alleged that Senator Dullo’s involvement in the leak is part of a broader strategy to destabilize the county government.
He called for a comprehensive investigation into the matter to hold those responsible accountable and to prevent future breaches of this nature.
Senator Dullo has not yet publicly responded to these allegations.
The situation has sparked a heated debate among Isiolo residents, with some expressing support for the county administration’s stance, while others demand greater transparency and accountability.
This incident comes amid ongoing efforts by the Isiolo County government to enhance its human resource management systems.
The administration has been conducting audits and verifications to ensure the integrity of its payroll and employee records.
The recent leak, however, has raised concerns about data security and the potential misuse of sensitive information for political purposes.
As the investigation unfolds, stakeholders are calling for calm and urging all parties to allow due process to take its course.
The outcome of the probe is expected to have significant implications for the political landscape in Isiolo County, especially with upcoming elections on the horizon.
The public awaits further developments and official statements from both the county administration and Senator Dullo’s office to shed more light on the situation.
