(Dr.) Khalwale","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":170,"legal_name":"Bonny Khalwale","slug":"bonny-khalwale"},"content":"Through this Bill, it is clear that if we enact it into law, then county governments will raise their own revenue without necessarily over-relying on sharable revenue from the national Government. Through this Bill, which I support, we will be helping counties to contribute to the growth of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of this country. The more a county grows her own source revenue, the more it discovers ways and means of unlocking the economic potential in respective counties, so that it goes towards growing the GDP."}
