Let us just stop politicking and allow my administration to serve the people who gave us the mandate to lead,\u201d Mwadime said on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking while presiding over the groundbreaking ceremony of the construction of Sh45 million rice milling factory in Taveta, the county boss said those who were hell-bent on distracting his leadership had started strategising for the 2027 elections.<\/p>\n<p>Mwadime\u2019s leadership has been under sharp criticism following the nurses\u2019 mishap that led to amputation of an infant\u2019s hand at Wesu Subcounty Hospital a fortnight ago.<\/p>\n<p>The mishap triggered a heated push for Mwadime to do a shake up in the health sector.<\/p>\n<p>The governor however said his administration has taken disciplinary action against negligent officers at the Wesu Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe four officers on duty at the time of the incident have been suspended and other doctors are currently being investigated. We are keen to ensure such a case does not occur again,\u201d Mwadime said.<\/p>\n<p>The governors further claimed that his political nemesis are capitalising on the unfortunate Wesu case to advance their political ambitions by sponsoring demos.<\/p>\n<p>Mwadime said he is keen on instilling a culture of servant leadership, unity and accountability.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy governor Christine Kilalo asked county leaders to forge a common working formula that would ensure steady development and economic growth of the region.<\/p>\n<p>She said a more synergised leadership would ensure quicker transformation of the county\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur appeal is to have a common working formula that is geared towards making this county a better place. To achieve that, we need to shun premature campaigns,\u201d Kilalo said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
