    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to reject this Bill. What this Bill seeks to do is what the Kenya Kwanza Alliance opposed vehemently during the 2022 campaigns. We were told that this regime would not create offices. We were told that the debate during the last campaigns was between those looking for positions and those responsible and responsive to the needs of the mama mboga, the bodaboda operator and the so- called hustler. What is the reality? When we came into this House, the first order of business was creation of the Office of Prime Cabinet Secretary. Immediately after that was the creation of the Office of the Leader of the Official Opposition. Now, this Bill confirms what we have always said – that the intention was always to create offices. The first office being created, which we have said is unconstitutional, is that of the Head of Public Service. The Committee, in its wisdom, rejected some of the proposals. One of them was that the Head of Public Service would become the custodian of the public seal. In essence, you are going to take away the responsibility of the Attorney-General and take it to State House and give it to a person who sits there as a personal assistant to the Head of State."
