"content": "Lastly, but not least, is the naming of the county attorney. We cannot say that he is an equivalent of the State’s Attorney-General. Kenya can only have one Attorney-General who can deal with matters nationally. We have the President and governors, but it is very clear that the governors cannot be presidents of their respective counties. We also need to come up with a clear name for these county officers, but not to call them county attorney-generals. Even if there will be no friction, it will not sound well for the country to have 47 attorney generals. It will be important to have a decent name attached to these officers, but not to look like they are equivalent to our Attorney-General at the national level. As Hon. Kioni has said, there is confusion when a governor pretends to be like the President. Imagine county attorneys being called attorney generals! What will they pretend to be? We will be shocked if somebody, by another name, pretends to be the President. If we give another person the exact name of an officer in charge of the country, then we will have chaos in the 47 devolved units of the country."
