Every County sorts itself with CISP, i don't know what the hullabaloo is all about!!! In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Kivutha lost some 3 years fighting MCAs and budget not getting approved. If He stays clear of NASA/wiper politics He can get much done in next 5.
Makueni is coming from a low base development wise. You can compare Makueni with Kitui but not Machakos due to history and weather. There are places in Machakos you would think you are in Kiambu. So you may not get it when a farmer who used to water cows far far away in dry season appreciates 'water pans'.
Kila mtu ajenge county yake. In the end the Country Kenya moves forward. Give credit where its due, Kivutha has done well so has Alfred Mutua and so has Mwangi wa Iria
I agree with you. Those saying he has not done well should provide comparative project in other counties for Prof to learn with. And please drop Mwangi wa iria from this comparison. He is all crook, fraud and PR Even a BrOKeN clock is right twice a day

Mama mboga doesnt close her business just because her supplier/farmer planting/harvesting season has ended Do you know Malindi doesnt even have a fruit processing factory with all abundant mangoes? If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

It's better to give people free money than first encouraging those who are engaging in profitable work?

Meanwhile a sad state of affairs in Migori...... https://www.the-star.co....r-three-months_c1713814
Quote:Migori residents and traders have given Governor Okoth Obado until Friday to restore water supply after three months of dry taps.
The group threatened to hold demonstrations in the county with empty jerry cans to express their displeasure.
The town has had no supplies of water following a Sh4million electricity bill.
The county gets its supplies from the Sh1.2 billion water project which was handed over to it by the African Development Bank in 2014.
"On Friday, we will not pay any taxes and levies to the county government. We will organise residents and traders to move with empty jerry cans for peaceful demonstration to the governor office," Kennedy Odongo, chairman of Migori Small Traders Association, said.
He was addressing the press in Migori town on Tuesday accompanied by Tobias Omino, the chairman of Migori chamber of commerce.
The two said residents cannot continue buying a 20-litre jerry can of water drawn from untreated rivers and springs in the area at Sh50.
Omino said they have already instructed traders at the bus park, Migori market and hawkers to boycott paying taxes.
"We won’t be giving Migori county millions in taxes weekly as traders including billions from the National Treasury and we are denied water in town."
