    "content": "The facility is closed at 11.00 o'clock in the morning when you expect it to be fully functional. No service is being delivered and expectant mother delivers outside. The people of Meru County expected that with the inception of devolution and with the health sector being apportioned to the County Government of Meru, they will have proper stewardship, proper managers and people who care about the health status of the people of Meru County. As we speak, no explanation has been ever given by the Governor on why an expectant mother had to deliver outside a facility in a karai ya maji . That is a pathetic situation in Meru County. No apology has ever been given by the Governor. No actions has ever been taken to ensure that such action does not occur. No disciplinary actions taken in respect to that particular facility. That is the case for the County Assembly. We urge you, hon. Senators, to listen to us, give us time to substantiate the simple charges that we shall place before you. It is a case of mismanagement, unaccountability, bad governance, a Governor gone rogue, victimization of the officers serving under the office of the Governor, a case of making sure that systems clog to the benefit of few individuals. That is the simplicity of our case. We will present you with concrete evidence to prove that simple case; the case that meets the threshold as enshrined in Article 181 and as read together with Section 33 of the County Governments Act. It is a case about the status of the Governor of the Meru County Government. As I pen off, some of the proposals being made can be resolved with actions being taken before this Senate. Most obliged."
