• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, whereas I appreciate the efforts by Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo in the endeavor to streamline the efficiency of the management of services at the county government level, and his endeavor to come up with a Bill that if passed would be an Act of Parliament stating the conditions of employment mainly of the staff at that level, I am a bit concerned with a few clauses in the Bill that would completely negate what the Constitution envisaged.

Tunapotoa rambirambi zetu na kuwazika walioaga, mambo yanaishia hapo. Kwa hivyo, ni wajibu wa Serikali kwamba kila kutokeapo jambo kama hili, kuwe na funzo fulani ambalo litakumbukwa na kutoa tahadhari mkasa kama huo usitokee tena.
