    "content": "That cannot happen in a situation where we have county governors whose major source of funding is money from the National Treasury and Planning. That can never happen. County governments must exploit resources found within to develop and create jobs for their people. Mr Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am very sure that when Sen. Nyamunga was drafting this Bill, she must have thought about a Bill that she really supported, the Mung Beans Bill that I pushed through this Senate. I continually thank Senators for passing it. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Bill speaks to a principle that is very dear to my heart; that every county is endowed differently, but so richly as to to sustain itself especially for basic needs without having to wait for funding from the national Government. I heard my colleage, Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura, trying to create the wrong impression that certain economic models are specific to certain political formations. This Bill is not about any political formation. This is a Bill about our counties and resources found within our borders. It is a national Bill for all intents and purposes. Mr. Temporary Speaker Sir, in the best interest of a colleague of mine who also want to move a Bill, I will not say more. I fully support."
