“As leaders, we have to exercise political maturity and give every one of us time and opportunity to express his or her views and opinions for the sake of development,” said Arahuka.
The chief whip also asked leaders in the county to shelve their differences and support the William Kabogo led government.
He said leaders in the county have a responsibility to come together to support development and champion peace.
The chief whip warned that political intolerance among leaders in the county will affect development.
