If we continue this way, we will never get good leaders of integrity and who are in touch with the citizens. We have tried the Nyumba Kumi (10 Households) initiative for neighbourhood security for some time now. From there, the hierarchy progresses as follows:Every Nyumba Kumi elect a leader through an election. In every neighbourhood of 10 Nyuma Kumi (100 households), the 10 leaders select an elder from amongst themselves. So, the hierarchical pyramid starts from a Nyumba Kumi leader; to a neighbourhood elder; to village chief; to a location governor; to a district senator; to a county minister and the president is at the top.
