Pathfinders are usually young children who are trained from an early age on virtues of life, skills on first aid, among other life skills. I welcome and ask them to learn and get to know because as school-going children and in the examinations of primary and secondary schools, there will be questions to do with Parliament. So, they should have an advantage when they go back to their schools and during their exams. I wish them well."

"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to comment on Sen. Onyonka’s Statements. He had three statements that touched on the Kisii County and its operations. In one of the statements, Sen. Onyonka highlighted issues on the Human Resource (HR) of Kisii County. In his statement, he gave a list of about 40 plus employees, most of them being chief officers from the previous governments that have been fired, resigned and others that have been transferred. I know it is our duty as Senators and as the “Upper|” House to ensure that devolution is working. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to point out that the issue we have in Kisii County is not lack of leadership. We also do not understand how county governments were set to work. For instance, any new government that comes in at the county level is guided by the County Governments Act. Sections 30, 31, 45 and 46 clearly stipulate that once a new county government comes into place, the governor has the power to get a team that can deliver to the people. Therefore, some of the questions that were in the first Statement highlighting or insinuating that we could be having a problem of people being fired illegally, are based on no specific facts that are there. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have confirmed that the 40 plus employees are chief officers from the previous county government. Some of them are people who served with the former governor, and I do not see a problem there."
