    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have a dream that after this law goes through, it will give way to an opportunity for us to create two bits of sovereign funds – a sovereign national fund and a sovereign county fund. If, for example, we are talking about the Turkana County oil or the gold mining of Kakamega County, then into the sovereign fund of the county of Turkana and on the other hand, the county of Kakamega, the percentage calculated under this law shall be deposited. The leadership, in consultation with the stakeholders in the county can agree on what areas, projects and which programs the sovereign funds can be applied. For example, it could be applied to educating poor children. In some counties such as Turkana, the fund can be reserved for feeding people and so on. I beg to move. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for this opportunity to address you. As you can see, this Motion touches on matters concerning counties. Pursuant to Standing Order No.66(3)(1), I hereby request that you defer the putting of this question to a later date. I thank you."
