    "content": "To those who sponsored media stories through the Governor of Garissa County, the county government and the water provision, I will not be intimidated, just like the rest of the Senators. We shall do oversight. In the last Financial Year 2022/2023, Garissa County was allocated Kshs12 billion. That money must provide water, healthcare and bursary to the people of Garissa County. We are aware of the allegations that they are buying houses here in Eastleigh and Kilifi County. I challenge the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to investigate the county governments that are misusing and misappropriating funds to their advantage. Instead of buying media spaces, bribing allegations and sponsoring ordinary mwananchi to answer Sen. Cherarkey, they should be busy providing water, bursary and roads to the people, so that they can fight this menace of drought. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, we thank Sen. Cheptumo for this wonderful Motion. I hope to see it to fruition. I hope our brother Prof. Kithure Kindiki and CoG will come on board, so as to ensure that we adopt this report of the Motion. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard Services, Senate."
