Kiambu Governor Urged to Respect and Work with Elected Leaders

Kiambu County Governor James Wamatangi has been urged to respect and work with elected leaders in the county after a prolonged standoff with Members of County Assembly (MCAs).

The governor has been in a long-running feud with MCAs over various issues, including the non-release of bursary funds.

The MCAs have accused the governor of running the county government without their involvement, and this has caused tension between the two sides.

Recently, area MPs expressed concern over the deteriorating relationship between the governor and the elected leaders in the county.

They called on the governor to extend an olive branch and work with the elected leaders to foster unity and development in the county.

In response, the governor has expressed his willingness to work with the elected leaders, saying that he values their input and support. He acknowledged that the county’s development agenda can only be achieved through collaboration with all stakeholders, including elected leaders.

The governor’s change of heart has been welcomed by MCAs and other elected leaders in the county. They have expressed optimism that the governor’s new approach will lead to a more collaborative and productive working relationship.

In conclusion, the importance of collaboration between the governor and elected leaders cannot be overstated.

The governor must recognize that elected leaders are critical partners in the development of the county and work with them to achieve the county’s development agenda. The olive branch extended by the governor is a positive step towards building a stronger and more united county.
