    "content": "I stayed in Vihiga, after having been there for the weekend until Monday to wait for the committees and all that was in vain. The Committees did not show up. I eventually read some communication that the governor had written to the Clerk requesting that the visit be pushed from Monday to Friday. The Speaker’s directive cannot be in vain. Directives made from the Chair must always be taken seriously and be implemented. I want to hear from the Chairs of the two committees, if they are here present, to tell us, one, why they did not visit Vihiga as directed by the Speaker. Two, to tell this House, the way forward; how they intend to prosecute this matter. Three, to tell us whether the committees of this House work at the whims or convenience of the very people they are supposed to investigate. The people of Vihiga have very high hopes and confidence in this House, that we will resolve this matter on their behalf, as the custodians of devolution. This is a very important matter. It should be dealt with expeditiously. I want to hear from the two Chairmen, what really happened and how they intend to proceed with this matter."
