"content": "should rightfully go to counties for maintenance of roads. Any other conversation outside that is only a conversation that can be held by governors who are self-interested. Lastly, there is this money that has been set aside by the National Government from the same RMLF; the Kshs7 tax that has been given to the Ministry of Roads to pay pending bills and complete roads that have not been completed; that is Kshs175 billion. That is the position of the Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing and the chairman is here. The position is very clear, that a percentage of that amount of money must go to counties. We should not have a situation where people from Kitui, Kabati or Matinyani, who fuel their vehicles,and Kshs7 is taken from them. That money must go to Nairobi for a decision to be made on how it will be used and yet we are paying that tax at source. A portion of that money must go to counties to ensure that we have equitable distribution of development and resources in this country. With those remarks, I support."
