Narok Senator Ledama Ole Kina has warned President William Ruto that his directive for counties to adopt the e-procurement system will lead to legal challenges, asserting it oversteps the national government's constitutional powers. This comes as President Ruto insists officials resisting such reforms should resign.

• The e-procurement directive is seen as a violation of Article 219, concerning counties' semi-autonomous status.
• Senator Ledama Ole Kina made the warning on Monday, September 1, via his official X account.
• President Ruto, speaking in Siaya on Sunday, August 31, stated that resistance to the digital Electronic Government Procurement (eGP) system indicates a lack of alignment with his development agenda.
