    "content": "legislating but it cannot enforce whatever it has legislated because it does not have the enforcement arm. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we may talk about the Narok askaris and so forth. We should remember that in Narok, Maasai Mara Game Reserve is actually manned and managed by armed askaris of the former County Council of Narok, and not the Kenya Wildlife Service per se, and even in Samburu. So, there is urgent need for both levels of government to engage and ensure that there is no vacuum. In the meantime, the Administration Police who seem to be duplicating what the other police are doing, the two levels of government can agree under Section 187 of the Constitution and assign or second some of the Administration Police to work under the county governments for the time being until the county governments have some form of enforcement arm, and this Senate, I believe, has a responsibility to enact a legislation that brings about an inspectorate arm of government at the county level. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we talk today, many urban centres are disorganized. Even in Nairobi, without the so called “ Kanjo”, there would be chaos. We cannot run away from this fact. A few fellows may mess here and there but certainly, there is need for some enforcement arm of the county governments. Thank you."
