First, I want to thank the Embu MCAs for coming out as real representatives of the people who elected them. They recognized and made sure that they looked at issues that affect the citizens of Embu County.

The employees working in the county governments are becoming a hindrance to those who seek services from the county governments. I thank the Embu MCAs for representing their people well. I want to conclude my support on this Motion by saying that the hands-off leadership that the Governor of Embu The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
