    "content": "corruption. Instead of engaging in politics, we should look at how we can come up with policies that would persuade all the citizens that we have their best interests at heart. We seem to have an approach where the loudest people or those who might be in a position to rabble rouse and get people to become emotionally charged are not really accountable. I support this amendment because I feel it captures the spirit of what the Constitution saw as very important. It is at the heart of what is ailing this country which is lack of transparency, efficiency, collaboration between the national Government and the county government and, most importantly, accountability where those in leadership can be clearly assessed and seen to be delivering services. As I support this amendment Bill, I thank Hon. Zani and colleagues who have pointed out that if we can address and find ways of coming up with a framework that would make different levels of Government, leaders that are appointed and officers who are given responsibility, to work together in ways that are clear, transparent, effective and efficient, we will be in a position to make a deserved difference and serve our citizens. I support the Bill."
