"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I arise to oppose the DORB this year. We are here for devolution and the DORB is the heartbeat of devolution. Devolution is in the Constitution. It is very unfair to have counties elect governors, they have their governments and they are unable to function because the national Government has not yet sent money on the ground. Even when we pass this DORB, the money still does not find its way to the ground. Unfortunately, for quite a number of counties, the expectations of the people have not been met mainly because of delays in funding, such that even the absorption of revenue that gets there has a problem because of time factor. If the money is released too late in the day, by the time any meaningful project is done, time will have elapsed and it is abandoned."
