    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would like to plead with the hon. Members that they should not quite dismiss the council of county governors. It may look like it is a body that is perhaps duplicating certain roles, but we can craft it and look at this clause carefully; as we move on, there will be need to share experiences and make sure that these guys will be consulting. When you look at the functions, there will also be aspects of cities and urban areas, which these people will be dealing with. Some of them maybe almost like the metropolitan area, where a city, or an urban area, transcends two counties and so forth. There are going to be a lot of detail that you cannot subject to the national summit; the national summit will be where the President will sit with the governors; the President will have other national duties. So, we cannot get him to start micro-managing aspects of the county governments. That is why I would really want to plead with the hon. Members that the forum for the county governors to be able to deal with other issues and disputes should remain at that level; the presidential consultation with the governors should be as we are proposing here."
