    "content": "consistent. The militarisation of a civilian government in a county government is the worst form of violation and overturn of our Constitution. I want to warn this House. You may not agree with the Governor or the leadership of Nairobi City County, at the moment. Tomorrow when we become governors and a worst president is in office, all our counties will be militarised and taken over by force. It must be known by the people of Kenya that I, Kipchumba Murkomen, am totally opposed to the manner in which Nairobi is being run by military men and many more being seconded to this County. What the hell is happening in this country? What is going on? As I said outside this Chamber, the authority of the Senate and Parliament must be restored and truth and justice must be seen. Sen. Sakaja, you may be happy with the transfer of functions but as long as you continue asking questions here against the military men, you should know that their place of trial is a court martial and not the court of public opinion. Therefore, we must fight for the management of Nairobi City County in a manner that is responsive to our Constitution and civilian rule."
