    "content": "when there was an issue concerning maize. These maize farmers were pastoralists who left their way of life and went into farming, Sen. Cherarkey does not understand where the shoe pinches. He cannot sit confidently beside Sen. Lelegwe and misrepresent Samburu and Turkana counties. The North has sufficient Senators in this House to represent them and we are going to address our issues as we know. When you spoke about the maize, we did not interfere. However, now you are reducing the inequality in this country, especially in the North, to a mere issue of corruption. It is not enough for him to allege that it is corruption that is delaying the North. It is false and unfounded. Sen. Cherarkey also needs to understand that there is a big difference between equity and equality and that is far from corruption. Corruption may have contributed, but you cannot reduce the issues of marginalization in the North to corruption. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as far as they know, the Equalisation Fund by the national Government is supposed to address issues around water, healthcare and roads. I want remind Sen. Cherarkey that there are no roads in the north. The entire north is disconnected and we need water and health facilities."
