    "content": "of the officers who the County Assembly accuses the Governor of having illegally appointed are advisors in the Governor’s Office. They are advisors in the Governor’s Office and help the Governor to execute a political and a legal mandate. Therefore, they are directly appointed by the Governor. If you see the signature of the Governor, then it means that person has been appointed directly by the Governor under the pleasure doctrine, which is applicable in our constitutional dispensation. This is where, as the head of the executive at the county level, elected in a presidential system of Government that we have now, you are entitled to form your own advisors and directly appoint them. So, you cannot be faulted. Where is this narrative? Where is this completeness? Secondly, Article 179(4) of the Constitution provides that the Governor is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the county. Now, this begs the questions, what are the powers of a CEO of a county government? Can the CEO sign an appointment letter? This is a legal question."
