Kaparo against system

Debate surrounding the executive makeup proposed in the harmonized draft continues to dominate, with divergent views either bashing or agreeing with the proposed hybrid system of governance.

Former House Speaker Francis Ole Kaparo has joined the bandwagon in rejecting the proposed system of governance, saying executive powers should only be enjoyed by a President elected directly by the people and not a Prime Minister chosen by virtue of only being leader of the largest political party in parliament.

He also faulted the creation of counties, saying they will stall the development agenda at the grassroot level.

Kaparo was speaking in Dol Dol Town in Laikipia District when Cooperative Development Minister Joseph Nyaga officially launched a financial institution.
