    "content": "today how BBI was to give more resources. I challenge President Uhuru Kenyatta that if he truly believes in BBI, Kshs630 billion should go to counties this year, not tomorrow. If BBI was not about politics of gerrymandering and trying to shepherd a particular individual to become the president of the Republic of Kenya without going through proper auditing by the people of Kenya, let them show that BBI was about resources to the counties. Let them come with a Division of Revenue Bill next year in February or March that this House in April will pass a Bill that contains Kshs630 billion being given to the counties. If not, I would like to ask President Uhuru Kenyatta and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and all those proponents of BBI, to shut their mouths forever. They cannot speak on both sides of the mouth. On one hand tell Kenyans that BBI was about giving money to counties and then come here and lie to the people of kenya. I want the people of Kenya to know that they are not going to get one shilling more than they got last year. Meaning this is Sen. Kibiru’s report who speaks on behalf of the President here. What does it say? It says counties revenue will reduce from the 22 per cent in this financial year to 17 per cent of the revenue raised nationally. This would really make us. I wish I was not interrupted on this very important point---"
