"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to oppose this Motion. Before decentralisation of funds, Western Kenya region used to suffer a lot in terms of development. We have seen development in Western Kenya arising from decentralised funds through NG-CDF. We have also experienced maendeleo arising from county governments which enable us to receive these funds. I want to report to this House that previously when these bursaries were at the Ministry of Education, some of our bright sons who wanted to study abroad would change their names to Kinyanjui, Kariuki et cetera, so as to receive scholarships. That is why there are those names in western part of Kenya, for example, in my constituency. We are in the process of decentralising funds. We should not revert to centralising them, as the Mover of this Motion has proposed. Because of time, Hon. Temporary Speaker, I strongly oppose this Motion."
