The elections are behind us. Now is the time to come together, put aside our political affiliations, and concentrate on delivering tangible solutions to the people who have entrusted us with their votes,&#8221; Mayor Matiita stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further urged the chairpersons to regularly convene community baraza meetings as a platform for engaging residents, identifying grassroots challenges, and assessing the essential services required in their jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mayor Matiita advised the new leaders to exercise prudence in using their official stamps, warning them against endorsing documents or matters without proper understanding and due diligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cue in: Mayor Matiita on stamp.
