The billboard proclaiming that Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga and a Member of the County Assembly (MCA) were the guiding lights in the construction of a single pit latrine in a neglected school.
That only a single one in one school is being built, and the fact that in other schools children use toilets in unspeakable conditions, should be a source of great shame to the leadership of Nyeri County.
As you enter every county, huge billboards with the smiling face of the governor welcome you.
Also, mundane county information messages on TV are always accompanied by the gracious faces of the relevant governors.
During the famine in the northern counties last year, the Deputy President William Ruto and Mandera Governor Ali Rob triumphantly flagged off trucks carrying food to the starving.
