    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to contribute to this amendment Bill. From the onset, personally as a representative of Isiolo County, I am supporting the Bill. My reason for supporting the Bill is that this is a historic moment in our country. For me, it is normally very important to be on the positive side of history making than to be on the negative side. I have participated a lot before various stakeholders as far as this Bill is concerned. When the Report of Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) was released, as a Pastoralist Parliamentary Group (PPG), we had several sessions with the Secretariat of BBI. We managed to present our issues as the counties that were affected by the outcome of this Bill. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have raised several concerns as far as the Bill is concerned. We managed to achieve some of it. I wish to state that one of the issues that we raised as the counties that are going to be affected especially on the revenue allocation was the issue of increasing the number of years for the Equalization Fund from ten to 20 years, which we managed to achieve."
