I humbly want to take this opportunity to bring some light to the residents of Kajiado South on why it is important to vote in Honorable Katoo Metito. For a necked fact, everyone will agree with me that reelecting him is the best option that we currently have.
I have gone through a lot of opinions from individuals in Kajiado South, where some of them think that taking a change is suitable to the community, and to them, they want to reconsider a new individual in for Kajiado South Member of Parliament.
First of all, analyzing their opinions; I want to say that voting is merely a collective decision, it is a democratic right for every Kenyan to cast their vote to candidates of their choice. Having this in mind, I want to put it clearly that voting out Katoo is one very poor decision that we have to work away with. Everyone needs to take a quick look at the status of Kajiado south issues and interest of the community, why we need to reinstate Ole Metito and why we have to support his bid even in the future.
To start with, the most obvious argument that all Kajiado south residents need to look at is: The relationship between the incumbent and the governments and other institutions. We have to first of all have in mind that, bringing in a new face for this seat may take the longest time to establish a link with governmental institutions and other areas that touches the interest of the community. Katoo Ole Metito is a one man that for the last couple of years, has been able to build a good relationship locally and nationally with such entities. Voting in a new face, to me, will take many more years to establish a good link with institutions. But why do we need this link to be continued? Of course we know that the Katoo factor has contributed to a good number of known individuals from south securing top slots both in County and National Government. This can only be done under an MP who knows very well how to approach the mentioned institutions, how to maintain a long term relationship with the entities and who to welcome as a friend to empower members in the community. I want to be very clear here, take a scenario where a person like Lalaito may take the day to be the next MP: what will PNU give back to the people of Kajiado south? This is exactly what we have to look at before the general elections. Where will we put our hope? Who should lobby out the resources from the party to the community?
Secondly, I want to bring this to your attention; Mheshimiwa Katoo has managed to relate very well with all groups and individuals in Kajiado south. I have, truly speaking, never had a single complain from the the community under grounds of discrimination due to tribalism, age sets and age groups and clan reasons. Issues of resource sharing, have been in equal distributions under the leadership of Katoo. Although minor complains are always leading the line in results of good leadership, I have witnessed such being handled with very special attention. This is widely enjoyed due to the very special relation that comes in between Metito and the public. I think there is no better alternative to make this better other than reelecting Honorable Katoo.
Thirdly, I want to mention about the issue of Maasai Kingpin declaration; It is indeed very important to noticed that every region from Narok to Kajiado, except few cases like Kajiado South and East, are sticking with an mp who can dare strange decisions for the betterment of the community's future. If every region is then proud of their prominent representative, why can't we, at least for now, show that Metito is our prominent representative, who can be the next big brain in this community? If, for instance, we go for Lalaito or someone else other than Katoo, how long will it take to battle the ground for the benefit of the community? Ten years, twenty years or three decades? You can read my mind and see what I stand for. He is not entirely the MAA kingpin, but for now he's the pride of Kajiado South residents.
Lastly, there is a very good record of developments and job creations in Kajiado South due to the Katoo factor. We have seen issues like problem of water and access to social services being dealt with in the right manner as a result of Katoo's reign. Needles to say, education has been improved in the last few years. Distribution of CDF bursaries to fund residents' fee requirements is absolutely on a very fair share. Availing the same for construction of educational facilities and renovation of the existing ones is one development idea that everyone can appreciate. Infrastructure development is indeed the best part of this development that will never go unnoticed. Before the implementation of devolved system of governance and devolution of services, Ole Metito was doing every area of infrastructure to ensure that there is equally economic development around the region. We cannot do better to appreciate this other than reelecting Honorable Metito for Kajiado South Member of Parliament.
With this said, I hereby want to state that, there is no any single harm in taking the bravest opinion to reelect Katoo. Arguments ranging from good relationship with the governmental organizations, parastatals and relationship with the community are the guiding opinions as to why we should go for Mheshimiwa Katoo.
