"content": "I urge that they look at this issue keenly because they are the same leaders tomorrow. I am happy because we have my Chairperson who is a former ten-year governor, who understands these issues because he is now sitting where this decision is made in this Senate platform. Lastly, the Senate is an independent House. It is also the “Upper” House. It is our baby, our cake and our everything. The Division of Revenue Bill should be ours to always protect. We should not even ask why we should mediate. Why do we anticipate issues? Why is it that we want to allow what the National Assembly has proposed? What is our work here as Senators? Is it just to impeach and bring Statements and Bills? This is our main baby in this House. It is high time we owned it fully for the sake of devolution. We also have the oversight fund. We need to tell them that as much as more money will be send, we need to have mechanisms as far as oversight of the counties is concerned. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, as the Vice Chairperson of the Committee on Finance and Budget, I support and appreciate my team for this journey. I thank you."
