    "content": "important mandate that they stand tall and give the image and the responsibility they are given so that people can respect them. They should commit themselves and adhere to the mandate that they are given so that we do not always repeat and say that they are Kenyans who have been given responsibility and they abuse their offices. These are people that we respect and we want them to implement their responsibility and mandate to the letter. Under their mandate, they are supposed to oversee the status of ongoing reforms. The ongoing reforms, as you know, are reforms that people have gone through very painfully and it will be very key for them to see that the Constitution is implemented to the letter; that the Constitution of Kenya that we have given to ourselves is implemented and all the reforms are in place according to what we have given to ourselves. They are also supposed to look at development projects. For them to be mandated to work on the development of programmes and projects in this country and particularly at the devolved units, it is a key role that people who are given that kind of responsibility must take very seriously and commit themselves. I know that there are very responsible and committed Kenyans and they can look into that and implement their mandate as we expect them to. It is important that when we are saying that the Constitution should be implemented, we always see people who always violate that. There are many people who have given this House a lot of problems when we try to beat deadlines. We always stand here and cry that we want two thirds majority. Yesterday we voted for extension of time. We want these guys not to have that kind of problem and to implement their mandate according to the laws that are in place. They are supposed to coordinate and facilitate the provision and support activities at the county level. This is a very important responsibility and I would like to say that it is important for them to take their work in a very responsible and committed manner."
