    "content": "I want to point at the figures as they are in relation to this Motion that has been put before us. Seriously, I am looking at them sequentially - the CRA and at the Committee. I am looking at the places where we are told they have big populations, beginning with Bungoma. If population was the basis upon which we were using the parameter, Bungoma is not getting what it deserves. The Senator of Bungoma County, irrespective of the question of population, wants a middle ground. People who want peace must look for the middle ground. If you look at what Kiambu is getting, looking at the population, they are not getting what they deserve. Likewise, Nairobi is not getting what they deserve. Sen. Sakaja, I support your patriotism. If it was on population, we would not be talking today. Nairobi has poverty. You can go to Mandera and find somebody with a toilet just like Nairobi, there are people who do not have toilets. I want us to be frank with each other. I was trying to offer a way out when asking for the adjournment. Look at what the figures mean. Kitui County was going to lose Kshs1 billion, not tomorrow or the next financial year, but now. Through Sen. Kang’ata’s amendment, Kitui will not lose the Kshs1 billion for three years, which is a fact."
