"content": "As we all know and as my colleagues have already said, this is our capital city and we have already seen for the last six months and even before, people of this county have not been receiving services. Therefore, I support this move. I am not a lawyer to really debate hard on that and say whether it is legally right or not. However, the action that happened yesterday took us by surprise. We did not expect it to move that fast, but I feel that it is a lesser evil. If the county has been suffering and Nairobians have not been receiving services, it is justifiable. This is our capital city which is a home for many people. If the County Government of Nairobi City is not doing well, then it has some negative impact on the national Government. I support the Motion but the question is; what do we learn from this? There are many other counties that have similar challenges. Will the national Government do the same thing to these counties? If yes, then what is the role of the Senate and how will we help the situation?"
