Fresh start for regions as ward chiefs prepare to take oath, elect speakers
The road to devolution starts on Friday with the swearing in of members of county assemblies in the country’s 47 counties. Most of the county assemblies have taken over what used to be city, municipal or county council offices and debating chambers. In Nairobi for instance, the 85 county representatives-elect will be sworn in from 10 am at the City Council chambers. The commission is seeking to reverse the list of nominees which it argues does not include the minorities and the vulnerable as is required by law.
