    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to make a comment on Sen. Mumma’s Statement. I thank the national Government for supplementing the devolved function. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you, being a former Governor, know about disaster management, disaster response and you are also a distinguished lawyer in this Republic. I have seen that in your county, flooding has started. I call upon county governments to ensure that the two per cent of the total revenue be allocated. It is under the law. Whether the national Government releases the money today or even in January, they must allocate because that is what the budget is all about. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the President because despite this being a devolved function, he promised Kenyans Kshs10,000 as a way of alleviating them. The Council of Governors (CoG) and individual governors of Kitui, Siaya, Nandi and Vihiga counties should tell this country what they did with the two per cent that was supposed to manage disaster in this Republic."
