    "content": "The committee has also recommended that the county commissioner ensures the safety and security of the deputy governor as she returns to the office for her to comfortably work. I know it looks light when a woman in leadership perhaps raises an issue of security. While this recommendation addresses women in leadership, it is inadequate. We cannot leave such decisions solely to the county commissioner. We need to specify what constitutes adequate security for the Deputy Governor of Trans Nzoia County, considering the threats she has received. For instance, if she has received death threats via SMS from individuals close to the governor, the Senate must establish whether she even has a bodyguard. It has been reported that she does not have a vehicle to commute to work. This means, we are leaving her vulnerable to potential abduction on the road. We must concretize these recommendations in the context of the threats this wonderful leader has faced. Additionally, the Committee has recommended that the deputy governor, when facing challenges in delivering services, should take preemptive measures by writing to the Committee, among other relevant agencies to seek assistance before issues escalate. This is a valid recommendation, as it acknowledges the strained working relationship between the deputy governor and the executive arm of the County Government of Trans Nzoia---"
