It means all the businesses will be restricted to indigenous people. What hon. Uhuru Kenyatta has done is what we have always been advocating, which is economic devolution and not majimbo . Basically, what he has said is that from now onwards, the units of development will be the districts. The unit of development should also be the constituency and local authority. If all constituencies were turned into districts and all districts into local government authorities, then the three arms of devolution would merge. Therefore, we would have our own devolution which is completely different from Majimbo . What he has done is to empower constituencies to employ teachers, nurses and to carry out other development matters. This is what should be developed, so that in the next Budget an amount is taken to the constituency for water and electricity---"
