Government
"Advocate for citizens and ensure legislative and oversight excellence."
The County Assembly is tasked with representing the interests of constituents at the Ward level and advocating for special interest groups within the County Assembly framework. It exercises legislative authority by drafting and passing Bills, which, upon approval by the Governor, become law. Additionally, the Assembly conducts oversight over the County Government Executive and related bodies, ensuring scrutiny of appointments, plans, policies, budgets, and expenditures.
