Nyaribari Chache Member of Parliament Richard Tong’i has said Gusii community should be given the post of national assembly speaker as one way of benefiting from the government.
Speaking on Thursday at Irondi in his constituency the law maker noted that kisii and Nyamira counties collects more revenue to the government and there is a need for the national assembly speaker to come from the region.
“As Gusii community, we need to benefit from the national government because we give more revenue to the government also in Nyanza we are leading in revenue collection,” Tong’i said
The legislature urged all Gusii leaders to join and cooperate together to get that benefit in the future.
“I am asking all leaders from the region to work together so that we get our benefit from the national government because if we have no unity then we cannot have what we are looking for,” added Tong’i.
