"content": "of Revenue Bill which was very protracted and we were not able to move to anything else apart from it. We can remember when we were dealing with the Division of Revenue Bill in the Financial Year 2018/2019, we were proposing that we give the counties Kshs335 billion for Financial Year 2019/2020. The CoG who are making noise today were the ones who went behind our back and settled for a figure which was far less. This House got divided right in the middle. Instead of acting as Senators for Kenya, working for the counties and defending them as per the Constitution, we got divided because we competing among ourselves on very little money that was allocated to counties. I am happy today as Members of Team Kenya. Let me confess that as the Chair of Team Kenya, we have reached where we are today because our colleagues who were not listening to us have listened. We were able to force ourselves to the table with the Executive to promise some figure."
