MCAs have want the creation of a liaison office for the Nairobi Metropolitan Services and the county assembly to foster harmony in city operations. The ward reps say the office will provide a platform for them to interact, ventilate and discuss issues with NMS officials. According to the county legislators, a common office was important through which they can raise matters of concern in their roles of oversight, representation and legislation. “I implore the Majority and Minority leaders, through the office of the speaker, to establish a liaison office between the assembly and the NMS for ease of communication,” said Robert Mbatia, chairperson of the county assembly Finance, Budget and Appropriation Committee. The house leadership warned MCAs against igniting ‘wars’ between the assembly and the NMS.
