Elizabeth Meyo, KRA’s Commissioner for Domestic Taxes has warned that governors faced prosecution if they failed to honour the summonses.
“All governors who do not comply will be prosecuted,” said Ms Meyo.
She urged the governors to ensure they had paid personal taxes from their incomes.
Last week, Council of Governors chairman Wycliffe Oparanya confirmed that his colleagues had received demand notices and summonses for non-remittance, which he attributed to transition periods during budget process.
“Some of these arrears result from the confusion during the budget process,” said the Kakamega Governor.
