"content": "This Bill will allow county assemblies to take the powers which they are supposed to have from the governors. Governors have been having these powers. We only hope that MCAs will use their powers to serve the people and recruit the right people to serve in those positions without necessarily falling prey to the governors and the tyranny of numbers. We were discussing a Bill here which was talking about the education level of MCAs. We thought the most fundamental part of the obligation of MCAs is to make appointments or to vet employees to serve in certain positions. For example, you want to have CECs with degrees or masters. It is quite abnormal for somebody who did not go beyond Standard Two to question the qualifications of CECs. It is important for MCAs to have certain qualifications which can allow them to vet employees for certain positions."
