"content": "The term of office of the former holder of the Office of Auditor-General ended on 31st August 2019. By Saturday, this week it will be three months since he left office. Surely it means there had been no plans. Is that Hon. Millie? Today she is wearing some very interesting hairstyle. I think she has come from some place. Please, take up this matter. I know Hon. Millie Odhiambo has always risen to the occasion. It cannot be that an office as important as that of the Auditor-General can remain vacant for this long and then the Committee is complaining that reports from the CBK and other institutions cannot be signed because the law says it is only the substantive holder of the office who can do that. If we plan when elections are going to be held for so many Members of Parliament, why is it that we cannot plan for succession of one office holder? Surely, it speaks volumes about whoever is responsible for this process. The House is due to go on recess, and yet no name has been forwarded to this House for approval. It means that for a very long time, the country will be suffering out of the ineptitude of some people somewhere in the public service or wherever. Is there a panel? Maybe the Chairman should have explained. Hon. Abdisalan, the Member for Wajir North, you are the Vice-Chair. You could also comment on that before Hon. Millie Odhiambo comes to your aid."
