I am not in his payroll as some of you want to believe. I am am only a kiambuu resident who wants to give our gavana a chance to do his job without a lot of back ground bickering.
Please let's talk of roads that are mandated to the county government for repairs. Some of this roads you are mentioning here belong to the national government.
Mr simo I only said we have "one of the best" not the best.
I too suspect that you are one of Kabogo's online 'finger soldiers'
he has a huge army on fb esp on the USK page
but i agree. some of the roads mentioned are yet to be given to counties. in fact, the county govts have very little to do this year on roads
but the one Simon mentioned is clearly a county job!
and lighting, garbage collection...the towns are dirtier than they were!
Mpobiz. Let's put roads aside, since both tarmacked and untarmacked roads were inherited across all counties.
An underlying argument for a lot of people is:
1. He has a HUGE budget
2. Having inherited a lot of very good infrastructure (on a relative basis compared to other counties), he's got less work to do on some basic investments
3. Having a very large population, the tax base is extremely large.
So what is his budget, and what has he ACTUALLY achieved? NOT ANNOUNCEMENTS / RALLIES / INTENTIONS, but tangible achievements.
Remember, if we have two kids in a computer class, and one is from Shagz while the other one lives in a house with 2-3 laptops, some touchpads and several 3G phones, everyone would expect more from the 2nd kid.
You start off from a higher base, then MORE is expected of you, not less.
On that score, Alfie looks DOUBLY good. He's starting off with a semi-arid county with a much lower tax base and just impressing the hell out of everyone!
