    "content": "of guard in any of the governor’s office for the reason that many of the contracts that they had performed were done from a word of mouth. They had no single piece of paper that they could take to an office for it to be honoured. They were really shaken in many counties, including the ones that border us and Nyandarua. In the event that they had another governor, how were they going to convince him that they had a contract that required to be paid when they get into the office? We have many contractors who have been wound up. Sometimes, we have some who are dealing with auctioneers for the reason that they also did not have any written contract. So, it is important that we make sure that contracts entered into among all those entities, including those at the county level and NG-CDF offices are written, so that any new officer or incoming person is able to look at what was agreed upon and honour it. That way, the contractor will make an informed choice when he wants to support a governor or Member of Parliament. They would not support him or her because of fear of losing funds, but they will do it because they know and believe that the person coming or the one who was there will move the county and region to better levels."
