The running of an organization today has to be by trusted people in the areas where the resources are much involved that is Finance, people and materials. However, this has not been the case since the management of organization has taken another turn to try and introduce the culture of misusing finances and materials. In the recent past, mistrust of people with financial management has been the center stage. There has been rising wave of public management reforms giving rise to concepts of new public management leading to surge of studies about the local/county governments, however very little research has been done over time to explain implication of financial management on County governments’ performance. This study therefore sought to find out the effects of financial management practices on performance of Garissa County government.
