"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, this is the time they are talking about issues of your county. The governor because of other reasons, including attempts to influence the Committee either through financial constriction – I am not casting aspersions against Members of this Committee because they are yet to become Members – or through the influence of political parties--- For instance, the Governor of Uasin Gishu County, with all due respect, will come before the Committee on County Public Accounts. Supposing his party leader who is the President, took a position, would you really manage to oversight again? So, you need the Senator of that county to be there to challenge the governor and be given space and opportunity to vote. That way, the people back home can know that we are elected as Senators who are earning a salary. We are being paid Kshs1 million. The majority of us, being people with a hustler background, Kshs1million is a fortune. We want to be seen to be earning it."
