"content": "under KeRRA. It will not happen and we must never allow it to. It is KeRRA, the Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) and the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) that enable Kenyans connect from one area to another. The money that is going to our counties for maintenance of roads is ending up in private pockets of governors and their sidekicks in the counties. This is not only happening in one county, but across the country. I know my County of Kiambu is the worst in terms of theft, especially in the roads sector. You will never find anywhere, where, the governors are properly utilising money the way Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA), Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA), or Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA) are doing. Therefore, I want to beg that we reject these amendments and send them back to the Senate so that we can reason together soberly during the mediation and agree. If there is a shortfall in revenue, we all bear it. We all contributed to its shortfall, whether as the county governments or national Government. Therefore, I oppose all the amendments from the Senate and support the Committee that we reject them. I believe we shall all be voting no."
