Bomet Governor Isaac Rutto now wants the constitution changed for the President to appoint MPs as cabinet secretaries.
According to Rutto this change will enable vibrant elected leaders who understand the country's problems to roll out necessary development projects.
“It has become clear that ministers serving under the Jubilee coalition have lost touch with the needs of the people at the grassroots. We need to re-engineer the systems to serve the people better,” Rutto said as quoted by the star.
He added that; "The cabinet secretaries serving under Jubilee are busy amassing wealth for themselves and their masters at the expense of development."
The CCM party boss argued that his party will support a coalition that commits to devolving 45 per cent of the national budget to counties.
He was speaking in Nakuru town on Friday during a meeting with more than 1,700 CCM party aspirants from 32 counties.
