    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I come from Isiolo South. I agree with my friends here that this Equalisation Fund was meant for the 14 counties. There are counties which are fully marginalised and not just pockets or portions. When the drafters of the Constitution talked about this matter and inserted it in the Constitution, they thought about those 14 counties. Now every other day, year, or successive regime, we think of adding others. Our lives have not changed up to today. The 14 counties have been marginalised and are still being marginalised in Kenya up to today. There are no changes that we have got and what we would have thought of as a reprieve was this Equalisation Fund. It may be our problem, but it is the majority who win and that is why we are doing what we are doing."
