    "content": "projects among the 14 counties, it is approximately 25 projects per county with a pending bill of Kshs1.2 billion. This is unfair to Kenyans. When we start selecting new projects, we should be careful. We do not need to do very many projects. There is no need of initiating projects which will have pending bills which will not benefit the constituencies. I also want to ask the commission which will come into place to manage resources properly, like we do with the NG-CDF. I have seen the Report is saying that we should not adopt the NG- CDF model. The NG-CDF model is the best. I have even talked about it here previously saying that even the central Government, if they were to adopt this model, we would not be having problems. It is because the NG-CDF model gives confidence to the contractor. It gives confidence to the community in which the project will be implemented in. Currently, most of us are suffering. The Government has allocated funds to do roads and 90 per cent of the roads in Kenya have stalled, which is unfair. Why start projects which are not completed? With those few remarks, I support 100 per cent."
