President Uhuru Kenyatta names new Cabinet

President Uhuru Kenyatta names new Cabinet

Dhuks
Why does Mr. Kimemia appear as an appointee? Doesn't the constitution grant him that position automatically as HCS?

It was not guaranteed that Uhuru takes him on board and may even be there for a short term if he doesn't play his cards well.
 
The president is taking charge of affairs smoothely, why should we be fixated at quibbles on the suitable number of cabinet members?,

the fact that he stuck at 18 cabinet ministers/ministries visavis the constitutional maximum or minimum, is an indicator that power is vested on him and even if angels were to be delivered to run ministries there will still be objections from the parliamentary vetting team!

You miss my point. I have no "quibbles" with him having the the authority to appoint be they men or angels, what I have a problem with is his being given credit for reducing cabinet to 18 ministries from 44, rather than from the maximum 22 that is constitutionally set. Had he done nothing that number would have automatically fallen to 22 as required by the new dispensation, it has nothing to do with him. The only window he has to maneuver is between 22 and 14 nothing more nothing less.

The credit should go to the citizens of KE, for they are the ones who set the max not him
 
The constitution in reference to itself has nothing of value and it cannot take credit because it is just a paper. The actions of men and women is what determines, whether the proper rules and guidelines are followed
 
Nimeangalia na kutafakari Baraza la Mawaziri la Kenya lilivyo dogo, na ziada ya hapo kila Waziri Mtarajiwa alihojiwa na Kamati za Bunge kwa zaidi ya saa nne kwenye open forum, kabla ya kuidhinishwa. IKatiba ya Kenya inaruhusu Rais kuteua mawaziri wasiozidi 22, na yeye kateua 16 na wote wamepitishwa na kuapishwa, ingawa kupitishwa kwa mmoja wao kulikuwa na vikwazo (Phyllis Jepkosgei Kipkingor-Kandie: as secretary of East African affairs, commerce and tourism). Mawaziri hawa waliapishwa na Jaji Mkuu Willy Mutunga akisaidiwa na Chief Registrar of the Judiciary Gladys Shollei; na wala siyo kuapishwa na Rais.I have a dream, siku moja na nchi yangu Tanzania siku moja ifikie hapo, iwe na katiba nzuri yenye kulenga maendeleo na demokrasia siyo kulindana, Rais ateue Baraza dogo la Mawaziri kwa kuzingatia Utaalam na Weledi (siyo Ukada), bunge limuhoji na kumuiidhisha au kumkataa Waziri mteule, na kila Waziri awajibike kwa bunge na Wananchi siyo kwa aliyemteua.The end of my dream!!! Viva Kenya!!!

I took time to understand the reason why you have to discredit every or little thing about what the elected president is doing or undertaking but I still fail to get it. Kenyans deserve the credit for setting the maximum or the president and his team of representatives also deserve credit for implementing the minimum or maximum threshold in the ministries. either way they compliment each other. So you definately are showcasing desperation trying dispose this connection. to kenyans credit is understaundable because allowed the current reforms through a referundum and therefore cannot implement it or who is implementing is it the opposition???
livefire where is your influence here. Wewe ni a strong CORD footsoldier and you have accepted to move on despite the court's ruling can your influence be felt.

1.
Let me respond to your reply a point at a time.
You did not take time to understand any of my commentaries because if you had you would have realized that I am not discrediting any one. To the contrary I am pointing out that the credit is not being given to to the appropriate recipient.

I don't know where you are getting the impression that I have issues with every thing that Uhuru is doing since I commented on one topic, maybe you will elaborate.

2.
I don't know which "his team of representatives" you are talking about, the last I checked Kenyans in the created the Constitution Implementation Committee (CIC). The CIC is the body mandated (plus the supreme court) to be the overseer of the implementation of the new constitution, all other institutions are mandated/required to morph be it in policies, structure etc to comply with the new constitution.

I have a problem with this section of your comment because it implies choice where there is none. Uhuru does not have a choice of either to comply or not, he has to unless he wants to go against the constitution which would be a different story. We can give them credit for doing their job well, say they beat the deadlines, but I am not for praising people for doing what they are being paid for.

3.
Here I have to say you are the one who are misplacing the connection. Uhuru and "his team of representatives" are employees of the Kenyan citizenry not the other way round.

4.

What do you mean by "therefore cannot implement it " They employed Uhuru and "his team of representatives" plus employees called MP's to run the last kilometer. It is no different from lets say you invent a great thing then start a company employ a few engineers, marketers etc to get the product to market.

5.

On this I think I have covered the who is implementing question.

The biggest problem with the mentality that Those we elect are doing us a favor and so we should praise them every time we see them is the reason why Africa is where it is. Our politicians are never accountable to the people because we have inverted the accountability ladder.

We have politicians believing that citizens should conform to their whims, not the other way round. The day politicians are forced to realize and accept that they are employees and they might get a bonus if the Country company does well then Africa shall rise at a rate we cannot even begin to imagine. That my friend, is my point.
