Cherargei","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":13217,"legal_name":"Cherarkey K Samson","slug":"cherarkey-k-samson"},"content":"As we delay the immediate effect of this formula, I challenge the counties to work on innovative ways of generating own source revenue. The Senate has been fighting for more allocation to counties, but the governors have been cutting a deal with the national Government behind our back. There was a time when we were pushing for the Kshs329 billion yet the governors had already made a decision with the national Government for Kshs316 billion. We challenge the governors to be innovative so as to generate own source revenue. I support this amendment."}
