    "content": "Let us not talk about regional balance. Regional balance is not a favor. I want to ask my good friend, the Leader of Majority of Party, not to appoint women who are married in another region and call that regional balance. That is the game that is being played. We must talk about that. You must provide and protect the spirit of the Constitution on regional balance. I am happy that the former Prime Minister was misquoted when he went to Murang’a and made a statement on revenue allocation in the counties of Mandera and Kiambu. That was a very good discussion and in fact, the Prime Minister was right. After devolution, we must discuss the national cake which is 85 per cent. If we have that discussion, we will see a serious imbalance in this country: In some regions, roads are not built, water is not available and hospitals are in poor conditions. We must allow the IEBC to do its work for us and have an election that is free and fair. Mr. Chebukati and his two colleagues are not going anywhere. I want to tell those who feel that they want to change them, that they are wasting their time. They will conduct the next election. I beg to support."
