    "content": "The Senate, which is the House that has a constitutional mandate and duty to defend devolution and ensure that it is properly entrenched in our country is on notice on how much it has done in terms of being the big brother to our various county assemblies so that we teach them and understand some of these basic things. It is, of course, not within our direct duty and responsibly but under the spirit of cooperation, being that the Senate and the county governments are institutions that are passionate about devolution and expect it to succeed, we need to do our work diligently. My only plea is that I hope that the court that has this matter will expedite the case so that sanity can be restored in the county government of Vihiga so that the citizens can begin to enjoy and receive services that they are now being denied as Sen. Khaniri has mentioned. In a few months’ time, the people of Vihiga County will be presented with an opportunity to choose whether they want to continue to suffer or rectify the mistake that they made. That decision is not for this House to make. It will be made in Vihiga. I thank you."
