    "content": "When we support and pass this budget, we think we are supporting the governors. Yes, we need to support the governors, but we need also to support our people. We are not supporting an individual, but communities. If you really care about your community, where you come from, please visit your counties. You should go to the wards and see the project that has been initiated, the ones that have been completed and what has not been completed. With that, you will know the exact situation. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I live in Karen and the road going to my house is called Ndege Road, then there is a rough road called Korongo Road which is about 1.1 km long. A contractor put some stones on that road and has not finished constructing it. It takes me about two minutes to drive from Karen Shopping Centre to Korongo Road. I then take about 10 to 15 minutes to move from Ndege Road to Korongo Road. Why does this happen? It is because the monies that are supposed to go to the counties are not there. This is because Kshs7 has been taken by the national Government and our friends, our brothers and sisters, at the National Assembly, want to take Kshs15. That is unacceptable. If the money for Marsabit does not go to Marsabit County, I will go to court to stop the National Assembly from taking that money from the counties. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
