Prime Minister Raila Odinga is encouraging Provincial Administrators to embrace the new governing structure as constituted in the new Kenyan constitution.
On Wednesday, Nation reported that District commissioners, district officers, chiefs and assistant chiefs will lose their functions as agents of the central government across the country if a draft Bill on county structures becomes law.
The draft Devolved Government Bill leaves no room for PCs, DCs, DOs, chiefs and the entire Provincial Administration system presently controlled by the central government.
PM Odinga, citing his office as an example stated that he will not be Kenya's PM after next year's general elections, however, that doesn't deter him from serving the country.
He said the Provincial Administrators can always take advantage on new opportunities the new constitution provides.
