    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am guided. It is not that we have not pondered on that. We keep on saying that we let them deal with the first issue that they are dealing with, which is the fake fertilizers, then now we will come back and deal with the other ones to save human lives. Mr. Speaker, Sir, when you sit there, the people Kilifi are also saying we elevated a speaker from Kilifi to the country. Can we one day suspend the sitting of this House and all match to the Ministry of Health or can we use the powers that we have, because we have a lot of powers? We have the power on the division of revenue. If we just say no, people will listen. However, sometimes we forget the powers that we have. I do not know whether you go and drink tea in the other House which their budget is increasing to Kshs2 billion. Sometimes we see things and it is good for us to say them here because this is where the truth has no shades of grey. When you look at the allocation of budget being done out there, you will find that one Member of Parliament (MP), who is the Chair of Finance and Budget Committee has decided that he will take Kshs1.5 billion for building roads of his own constituency, when other counties have got no money whatsoever. Then you are saying that we have no money. Where is equity?"
