    "content": "The judgment on that matter will come on Thursday at 2.00 p.m. Hon. Jared Okello, from what you have said, we sought to stop the judgment from being delivered at that point, and it was postponed to Thursday. Today, the National Assembly and the Council of Governors (CoG) were in court and it was directed that we proceed with the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). I want to confirm to this House that tomorrow we will be meeting with the Council of Governors, if they show up. If they do not show up and ignore the directions the court has given, we still have our cards. It is wrong for the governors or the Council of Governors to hold the entire nation at ransom. Ksh10 billion is lying idle in some account, and with these rains, the roads are impassable. Even if we decided to give this money to the governors, they would still not do the roads. Trust me. I am on record as having said that we need a microscope to see what governors do in their counties, besides recruiting huge battalions for events and harambees. They have a group of people who move around with them to every meeting, and their work is just to cheer and clap for them. That is why they are pushing to get the money. It is important for this House to know that."
