    "content": "We are telling them that if this House allows the proposal by the Senate on the Division of Revenue Bill, it will then mean that the amounts that we place for the 22 per cent that is under the control of Members of Parliament should be managed governors. We know there is capitation, they are not able, they will not do it and they will use it for other purposes. In totality, when you say that you have money like Hon. Opiyo Wandayi has said, you must show which place you are taking this money from. Who are you subtracting to add for the county revenue? Which person are you subtracting? In this case the main casualty will be Members of Parliament; NG-CDF and NGAAF. Instead, we should be discussing on how we can add NG-CDF and NGAAF more money because, at least, we are able to see what they are doing. Members seated on the opposite side are only playing populist politics. They know even from the counties that they come from that there is nothing, I see Hon. Renee shouting, but in her county, there is nothing. The roads are pathetic, I was there last weekend and the roads that are done by governor Nyaribo in Nyamira are zero. He is not doing anything. I also see Hon. Nolfason Odadiah complaining here but if you go to Bomachoge and Borabu, you will find that the village roads that are supposed to be done by county governments have not been done. They are pathetic, even the Early Childhood Education (ECDE) classes that were supposed to be built have not been built. We cannot add money to counties. To whom much is given much is expected."
