In A Fiery Statement Orengo Accuses KK Government of Undermining Devolution

In a fiery address, Siaya County Governor James Orengo, passionately accused the national government of systematically undermining the principles of devolution.

Speaking with fervor, Orengo asserted that the very essence of devolution, designed to empower local governments and distribute resources equitably, was being eroded by actions from the central authorities.

Orengo pointed to specific instances where he believed the national government had overstepped its bounds, diminishing the autonomy of local administrations. He emphasized that devolution was not merely a bureaucratic structure but a crucial mechanism for fostering inclusive governance and addressing the unique needs of diverse regions within the nation.

The seasoned politician lamented what he perceived as a trend of centralization, arguing that it contradicted the spirit of devolution enshrined in the constitution. He called for a reevaluation of policies and a renewed commitment to the principles that underpin devolution, urging a collaborative approach between the national and local levels of government.

Orengo’s accusations were met with both support and dissent, highlighting the ongoing debate surrounding the balance of power between the national and devolved governments. As the nation grappled with these critical issues, Orengo’s impassioned plea served as a rallying cry for those advocating for a robust and effective devolution framework that truly empowers local leaders and addresses the diverse needs of Kenyan communities.
