On 3rd December 2019, H.E Waiguru, the Vice Chair at the Council of Governors and the Chairperson Devolution Conference planning Committee officially kicked off plans towards the devolution Conference.

While officiating the 3rd County Executive Committee Members Conference, the Vice Chair noted that the CEC’s Conference has been an important pillar of the Annual Devolution Conference since it is a precursor and all resolutions form part of the discussions therein.

“The next Annual Devolution Conference will be held in March 2019 in Kirinyaga County, I urge you to use this platform to ensure that your recommendations towards improving service delivery are incorporated,” she said. She equally urged the County officials to use the CEC’s conference and discuss topics that will steer robust discussions in the upcoming devolution conference. Further, she called upon collaboration and consultation among counties terming it as the secret for common people to achieve uncommon results.

H.E. Waiguru thereafter officially unveiled the devolution conference website being the first participant to register online. She called upon the private sector, academia, development partners and National government to join in the conversation.

The CEC’s Conference brings together all County Executive Committee Members, County Secretaries and County Attorneys to take stock of sector issues and present recommendations to the Annual Devolution Conference. The 6th Annual Devolution Conference will take a sector approach under the theme Deliver. Transform. Measure. “Remaining Accountable”. The sectors under focus in the Sixth Devolution Conference will be Health, Trade, Housing and Infrastructure and Agriculture.
