    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity for me to also say something about this very damning report from the County Public Accounts Committee. Our counties should be able to put their priorities right. I would like to start by saying that our counties should be able to put their priorities right, and that issues to do with the community health promoters and salaries for medical staff things should be prioritised by the counties. That is why we spent a lot of time here in the morning trying to see to it that there is even distribution of additional revenue, We cannot fight that hard to give our counties more cash only for the same to be misappropriated, and most of it, outrightly stolen by those that operate our counties. It is sad that there is no rationale in some of the expenditures that these county governments incur. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, yesterday in the dailies, there was a report of one county that spent Kshs10 million in legal fees to defend a case where the claim was just Kshs1 The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
