    "content": " Madam Temporary Speaker, I support this Petition because it applies to nearly all the counties. Yesterday, we had a petition about Bungoma. If you look at the root cause of the problems being encountered there, it is the same with what is being experienced in Nyamira and Siaya counties. One of the biggest fault lines we have in the Constitution, which we need to rectify, is describing governors as the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of the counties. Not even the President of the Republic of Kenya is described as the CEO of the Republic. That has made it possible for the governors to have chairpersons of CPSBs and speakers they want. They do not abide by the law we made here and the Constitution that posits the executive authority in the county executive committees."
