"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also join my colleagues in condemning the decision by the Members of the National Assembly to deny counties the monies we have requested. I take this opportunity to remind the Members of the National Assembly that their constituencies, which they like talking so much about, exist in counties. When this money is sent to counties, it is sent for appropriation by the same people they serve in their constituencies. One thing that the Members of the National Assembly must remember is that health is devolved. They do not deal with health in their NG-CDF. They must remember that when their parents at home, brothers and all those related to them get sick, they go to the medical facilities that are under the counties. Let them know that disease does not choose whom to get to. At least for the sake of health, the Members of the National Assembly must give in to the request that we have made for monies to counties. My colleague, Sen. Eddy, has talked about it; that we are the only sober House in this Parliament. Why do I say so? It is because the money we are fighting for will not come to us. This is not a selfish argument. We are speaking for Kenyans. The Members of the National Assembly must know that this is money going to counties. I challenge my Majority Leader here."
