    "content": "doing their work. Which work are they doing apart from clapping for the governors, begging and praising them? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I pray and urge MCAs if this will be a solution to their problem; they also come up with a solution which is gracious to this country. Let it solve the problem of embezzlement of funds in our counties. Today in the CPAC meeting and I think this matter should also come to the House, there is a trend that has been developed by governors. They are now refusing to appear before all the committees of the House. They are taking the queue one after the other. We are becoming irrelevant because they are disrespectful. I remember being told the day before yesterday a governor - I will be specific to the Governor of Isiolo County - when he was told that his County Executive Committee Members (CECMs) are not gender balanced, he agreed. He then went ahead to ask what was going to be done to him if he did not balance the gender of his CECMs. That is where we have reached. People no longer care about the laws in this country. This House must wake up. We must have a solution to the challenges we face in our counties. They disregard the laws in this country. I think laws are there to regulate. However, you will find somebody saying that they do not care what the law says and do what they want. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, on record, as far as I am concerned, this House is irrelevant and that is what governors believe. I hope we are going to find a solution to this problem. I thank you."
