 and your families, all elected leaders present here, the Director General of NMS and the great people of Nairobi. Good afternoon. I'm Jambo. Let me join the people of Nairobi in congratulating you, Governor Johnson Sakaja, your deputy and your team for a wonderful election period that I shared with you and many other Nairobians and Kenyans. We have come here to witness your inauguration as Governor of Nairobi. I want to say from my family and I congratulations from the UDA and Kenya Kwanzaa family you have made us proud. I want to take this opportunity at this very early moment not only to congratulate you but to wish you well as you take over the reins of Governor of this great city which also is the capital of the Republic of Kenya. As I congratulate you, Governor, I congratulate all the other governors that are being sworn in today across Kenya. I know about 45 governors will be sworn in today or have been sworn in already and I want to say to all the governors of the Republic of Kenya congratulations and I pledge that the government of Kenya, the national government of Kenya will work with all the governors of Kenya in making Kenya a great nation in a very special way. Allow me to pass very special congratulations to the women elected governors of the Republic of Kenya. In this election the people of Kenya made yet another historic decision. From the three governors that were elected in 2017 that are women we now have seven women elected as governors in the Republic of Kenya and I want to say congratulations to the women of the Republic of Kenya and to those who have been elected as governors. Very special congratulations to Fatuma Achani, the elected governor of Pale County. Very special congratulations to Ceciline Barire, the elected governor of Ember County. Very special congratulations to Arn Mumbiwai Guru, the elected governor of Kirinaga County. Very special congratulations to Governor Faiz Kawira, the elected governor of Meru County. Very special congratulations to Avinyan Deti, the elected governor of Machakos County. Very special congratulations to Gladys Wanga, the elected governor of Homa Bay County and of course very special congratulations to Susan Kehika Nuk, the elected governor of Nakulu County. To all these great women we wish you well as you take over the responsibilities of Governor Inyo County and to all the other governors that have been elected in the Republic of Kenya. I want to say just two things to our governor starting with my good friend, Johnson Sakata, that you will have the undivided support of the government of Kenya as you discharge your responsibilities in your counties. I know having been chair of the Intergovernmental Budget and Economic Council that we have had challenges on matters to do with release of shareable revenue on time. I want to commit to all our governors that the government of Kenya going forward will make it possible that the shareable revenue will be released in time and in accordance with the law and the constitution so that we can better manage our counties and make it possible for you to deliver on your mandate and the commitments you have made to the constituents in your counties. Let me also say that we are going to work with you on making sure that counties build the capacity to raise resources on their own source of revenue channel to make it possible for additional resources from the shareable revenue from own sources of revenue so that you can better deliver on services and on the mandate that you have been appropriated to buy the constitution in your counties. I also want to commit that we will work hard. I have already discussed with the Kenya Revenue Authority on how to raise revenue and I commit that we will work together with you so that Kenya can live within its means and there will be not all men or big girls that the rule of law is going to equalize every Kenya so that each one of us can pay their taxes. There will be no exemptions on anybody on account of paying taxes. I want to commit that going into the future the rule of law will be the benchmark that all of us irrespective of who we are will be expected to live by the rule of law. I want to commit to all my friends in leadership that we are going to work together to make Kenya a country of opportunity that every citizen of the Republic of Kenya working hard will access opportunity without the necessity of having any connection. As we go into the future especially in the city of Nairobi you know my brother Johnson that you are a miracle candidate. Your election to the city governor of Nairobi is indeed a miracle. It wouldn't have happened without God and I want to appreciate that you have understood and underscore the place of faith and God in your election as the governor of the city of Nairobi. I want to tell you my friend and brother that we will work with you. We have confidence in you. We are proud of you and we know the great city of Nairobi has the best that it can get in terms of government. I also will be available to consult. You know the commitments we already made to the people of Nairobi with respect to market infrastructure. The commitments we have made in matters collection and management of garbage. You know the commitments we have made in matters to do with transport infrastructure for the great city of Nairobi and you know my brother the commitments we have made in making sure that every hassle will count in the great city of Nairobi. I will be on hand to support you and finally you and me have already discussed on making the reverse of Nairobi places of opportunity enterprise and business are supposed to what it is today a place of faith and rose sewage. You and me have discussed on the Nairobi reverse commission. I will be looking forward to consultation so that we can set it up and begin to truly make this great city a city of dignity in your own words and a city of opportunity. I want to say to all my fellow citizens of the Republic of Kenya. I want to urge us as we go into the future you have spoken to us loudly. I want to ask all the leaders of the Republic of Kenya to listen to the loud message that is coming from the citizens of our country. The citizens of our country are speaking to us loudly but they want their politics to be non-tribal and they want their politics to be peaceful. In this election we have seen a very new phenomenon that we all voted and the next day we were ready to go to work and we were ready to go on with our life and everybody on to their hustle. That is the loud statement that is coming from the people of Kenya to those of us who are leaders. I am asking all of us as leaders to listen to what the people of Kenya think so that we can conclude the remaining steps of our election in a peaceful orderly respectful manner respecting all the institutions that will discharge their responsibilities because we are a country governed by law, by the rule of law and by our constitution. I want to conclude again by asking all the leaders of the great city of Nairobi from our good friends, members of the county assembly and the workers of the great city of Nairobi to join hands with a new leadership under Johnson Sacaja and take our great city to the next level and I want to commit and pledge to you that we will be available to work with you because Nairobi is our collective business. I'm Danny Sana, now I'm here for Kaya Mungu and may the good Lord bless you. Thank you very much.
