    "content": "But of importance for me, it is the character of the Council of Governors. The NG-CDF is 2.5 per cent of the national budget. Each constituency gets about Ksh130 million or thereabout when you do the tabulation. County governments get a minimum of 15 per cent. In fact, this House gave them in the last financial year about 25 or 26 per cent. When you do the tabulation, you realize that in the 2.5 per cent that constituencies get in terms of NG-CDF, each constituency gets about Ksh120 million or Ksh140 million at the highest. With the allocated amounts in the counties, some counties can get about Ksh11 billion in the shared revenue, and a budget of Ksh500 million for the office of the governor. But the NG-CDF, which is for the consumption of the common mwananchi, only gets 100 million. With Ksh11 billion in some counties - and even some of them getting up to Ksh15 billion - you will actually need a microscope - and I have said this several times - to see what governors do."
