...John Michuki? Is that the best there is in Murang'a? He has done good. You can only shine once and Madela realised this. That is why he (mandela) is the greatest statesman to ever have lived. Let the man spent the rest of his remaing days removing jiggers from his feet!!! (light note)

I would swap the two. Peter Kenneth going by his CDF record is best placed to run the county. Michuki in his sunset days can sit in the senate (which in my opinion is toothless as all the action will be in the county) plotting on censuring the executive, which is its biggest task.

Magigi I think having the best performing minister and the best CDF manager in the country is not too shabby.
It could be worse.

This senator thing is over hyped!!

IMHO, it is better to be a member of the National Assembly than a senator.

FYI, the National Assembly:

1.Will legislate over bills of national importance while senate can only debate bills that affect county governments

2.Is where the national budget will be read and passed

3.Can also legislate on county related issues(which is primarily the role of senate.)

4.Has a greater oversight role over the national executive than the senate

The governor thing is confusing.I'm tempted to agree with Ruto that the governor is an over glorified chairman of County Council.Check the fourth schedule to confirm

@Kadonye,
What is confusing about the Governor?....A CEO with 3B at his/her disposal but besides that,he/she has the mandate to identify and generate revenue for the county......That does not describe a nyef nyef.

Michuki for Governor!!! This guy is a no nonsense workaholic with an incredible business sense! I don't know why people are so fixated on the age. Numerous studies have shown that older employees are actually more innovative than the over hyped younger generation. Visit link below:

Older Employees More Innovative

I encourage everyone to visit that link because the sooner you disabuse yourself of these stereo typical belief the better for yourself, those around you and any businesses you may run.

Peter Kenneth is also on point. Next Governor maybe?

Dont think @Magigi was referring to age but fresh leadership. That said, I would rather be led by an 80% senile Michuki-like character than a youthful Zinjanthropus like that Sonko boy vying in Makadara.

whoever thinks 3 billion is a large amount of money for places like Nakuru County (Naivasha [suswa] to Molo [londiani] and Subukia and Lower Solai to Likia) is joking. Nairobi City has total Revenue of 12 billions shillings....12 billion!! we are talking about 1/4 of that spread over large expanses as Illustrated....p.s. that means the national Government is losing out on Revenue...Since the Cake is still the same size (no one is talking about increasing the size of the cake only reapportioning it) as of this years budget Parliament was in agreement that the 977 million budget was living beyond our means. We are walking a tight rope that may snap as we add staff to our backs and redistribute the same amount of money (with administrative costs i.e. A larger parliament, A senate, county governments) - you will be taxed until you run dry ergo milking a dry udder will only make the government receive a Kick.
