"content": "The deputy governor reached out to the Intergovernmental Budget and Economic Council (IBEC) through the Deputy President. That letter was copied to this House through the Speaker of the Senate. The foundation claim that was put forward by the Deputy Governor of Trans Nzoia County was that her life is under serious threat. When she came back from the United States (US), she found that there were a lot of targets on her personal life. Those threats were more explicitly communicated through a staffer of the Governor. Therefore, she sought for an intervention that could give her reprieve. The first observation made by the Committee is that there was a simmering rift between the governor and deputy governor. However, though both of them did not indicate explicitly so that they have a major conflict between them. The second observation in so far as the report is concerned, because I want to confine myself to the report, is that the work of the deputy governor had significantly been impacted by the communication breakdown between her and the governor. So, there was an issue of communication breakdown. The governor and his deputy are saying that they do not have a dispute between them. However, the Committee observed that there was a serious communication breakdown between the two. The deputy governor who constitutionally is supposed to assist the governor in executing his or her mandate yet they are not communicating. It behooves me to conclude The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
