"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I congratulate them for taking advantage of the programme that you initiated. I hail you for initiating the programme of empowering our county assemblies. County assemblies are very vital and key in ensuring that devolution succeeds. The biggest gain Kenyans got in the last constitutional dispensation of 2010 is devolution and we have no choice but to make sure that devolution succeeds and county assemblies are key players in ensuring that this works. So, we encourage them to keep coming. Vihiga County Assembly has already brought about six delegations here on the same programme and I think almost each and every Members of County Assembly (MCA) of Vihiga has been to the Senate. The Senate is their key ally in their oversight role. Therefore, they must always endeavour to work in tandem with the Senate for them to succeed particularly in their oversight duties. Welcome and feel at home. We wish you all the best in your stay in Nairobi."
