    "content": "small existing resources, bring in accountability and change how things are done in county governments. We have over borrowed as a country. This Senate fought a bit and got an additional Kshs9 billion, which we could have gotten. I never voted for the Division of Revenue Bill because I felt like the little money that was given was not enough. When you see a Member of the National Assembly clapping hands and saying that they have already been allocated an additional Kshs20 million to carry out functions that the county government should carry out, you start questioning whether we understand our role. I long for the day when we will all come of age and know that Parliament's role is to legislate, not implement projects. When you see Members of the National Assembly running around, even county assemblies tomorrow will say they need a kitty. These are the things we have been fighting about. We need to think about the future generation. The time to think about this is now. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I can see my time is over."
