    "content": "regarding employment and promotion of Chiefs and Assistant Chiefs by the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government countrywide. In 2010, after my request, the Government created a number of locations and sub-locations in Kajiado Central Sub-county. Four positions of Chief Grade II and five positions of Assistant Chief Grade II were advertised and interviews conducted. Names of successful candidates were forwarded to the Regional Commissioner for approval and the same was approved, but appointments were not made according to the results of the interviews. The Assistant Chief whose sub-location was upgraded and he has been an active chief had passed the interview with flying colours but was denied promotion. His position was re-advertised so that a political sycophant’s relative could get the position. Now, the Chairperson should inquire into the following:- i) why the position of chiefs in Kumpa and Orinie Locations and Impiro Sub-location were re-advertised when in actual fact successful candidates were approved and appointed; ii) the timeline within which these officers can get their rights and appointments made; iii) the role of the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government in the appointment of Chiefs and Assistant Chiefs countrywide; and iv) if the law was flouted, what is the Kenya National Assembly going to do to prevent a recurrence of the same. Thank you, hon. Speaker"
