    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I respect what Hon. T. J. Kajwang’ has said. In 1992, T. J. Kajwang’ was the Chairman of the Student Organization of Nairobi University (SONU). That was the time we were fighting for the liberation of this country from the grip of KANU when there was only a one-party system. I was a congressman. Times have changed. T.J. Kajwang’, we have gone back to 1992 when we need to have a second liberation of this country from the grip of the new KANU. That is where we are today. I support the mediated version of the County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.11 of 2017). I know that it takes time for Bills to come from the Senate to this House. At times, some of these Bills get lost. When we go out there, some of the former councillors ask us about the Bill that takes care of their interests. Where did it disappear to? This Bill was moved in 2017. It has taken three years for this Bill to come from the Senate to the National Assembly and go to the Mediation Committee. It is here today. It is high time we moved with speed and approved this Bill, so that what was intended can be achieved."
