    "content": "I support this Bill. I know very well it will go a long way in assisting us to get the right people to serve in certain positions in the county. The only problem that we have in this Bill is the question of tyranny of numbers in county assemblies. Sometimes in the National Assembly, we find it hard to reject people who we know have some background which does not fit to serve in public positions, but because of tyranny of numbers, we normally look at them, scrutinise them and allow them to serve. We thought that we did our best to get the right person to serve in the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) position. However, he has not served in that office. He has so many issues, for example, matters of corruption, integrity and incompetence yet he passed in this House. Sometimes the problem of tyranny of numbers destroys the importance of having vetting panels and approvals by the counties and the National Assembly."
