    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the avoidance of doubt, we aware and I am glad that Sen. M. Kajwang’ has mentioned it. He has been a very good leader in the Committee of Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations. The transfer of functions from the Nairobi City County government to the National Government through NMS has been extended until August, 2022. For the avoidance of doubt, it will not go a day after 9th August, 2022. I have seen people commenting in a certain forum - where I am with Sen. Murkomen - that it is being extended past that date and it can be done because of perpetual succession. It is impossible! The next governor of Nairobi City County will be the one who will have the authority to determine whether they should continue with NMS. The next Governor who - God willing is standing before you - will determine which operational set-ups in NMS are still working that can be a department under the City County government. For now, they should start handing back. We shall bring a Statement here to make sure we have the full Assets and Liabilities Register. This is so as to know what they have been working on so that they start handing over Nairobi County back to the people of Nairobi who are eagerly waiting to make a decision on the 9th August, 2022 on who their next governor will be. Sen. M. Kajwang’, do not worry about that, we are on it completely. I thank you."
