Governor Ochillo Ayacko's administration has automated its revenue collection systems in a bid to increase locally generated revenue. The initiative is also part of efforts to seal loopholes that have led to revenue losses in the past.

Governor Ayacko's administration, which aims to collect Sh1 billion in the 2024/2025 financial year, has introduced the use of a USSD code, mobile phones, and Bluetooth printers for revenue collection.
