    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My clarification arises from the assertion by the Counsel for the Deputy Governor that the witness serves at the pleasure of the Governor of Kisii County. Section 35 of the County Governments Act gives the Governor the responsibility to form and appoint, with the approval of the County Assembly, the County Executive Committee. The same Act in Section 59, gives the power of appointment of the rest of the staff to the County Public Service Board, which appointed the witness. In view of this provision, is the counsel of the defendant going to be magnanimous enough to come and rescind that statement so that it is not in the record that this witness serves at the pleasure of the Governor of Kisii County and that he is appearing this morning purely to canvass to be confirmed in his acting capacity?"
