According to county fiscal performance for the 2024\/2025 Financial Year, Kitui is ranked among the Top 10 counties in development spending, with approximately Ksh. 3 billion allocated to development projects. This places the county alongside other top-performing counties such as Narok, Kiambu, Nakuru, and Wajir.<\/p>\n
