    "content": "accessing their offices. When you look at the County Governments Act that you alluded to, the county headquarters are designated. Therefore, does it mean that when you now sit, for instance, in Kiambu and you then decide to sit in Ruiru, are you not going to be violating that County Governments Act? This is just for purposes of clarity, because this is an issue that is intended to ensure that it advises jurisdictions. It helps us to show continuity in terms of service delivery to the people. If you could clarify further, because you referred to Section 6(A) of the County Governments Act in terms of where each has its headquarters. I remember that earlier on, when I was reacting to the ruling, I had suggested that these county governments or rather these county governors can be able to set offices in Delta House in Nairobi. Since this is a House of record, I want to see whether that goes hand in hand with your ruling. However, now that you have said that they have been barred from entering their offices, that absence does not necessarily mean that the deputy governor can take over the positon. It is a very good ruling, but I am a bit skeptical because it is also very dangerous in terms of Article Six of the Constitution. We really have to find a balance. I hope that Article 179(5) of the Constitution can be further elaborated, because you also used the word “shall.” When you use the word “shall,” it is mandatory. It is not a “maybe;” rather, it is something which is mandated by the Constitution. I wish you can clarify that aspect of it so that even if it comes to redrafting that Motion, it can make sense."
