Dekow Mohamed","speaker":null,"content":" Before NG-CDF, we only had three secondary schools in Garissa Township Constituency. Today, we have 12 schools, and the number is growing. Within my tenure as Member of Parliament, I intend to construct two more secondary schools using the NG-CDF allocation. You can tell the kind of development that is going on in such constituencies. During the 2022 general elections, I had an opportunity to contest for governor of Garissa County. I had the opportunity to travel across all towns within Garissa County. There is absolutely no impact from the county allocations. In fact, the residents told us that not a single project had been carried out by the county government. Even within my constituency, not a single dispensary was constructed using county funds under the devolved health function. However, three or four dispensaries and Level 4 hospitals were constructed using the NG-CDF before the county governments were established."}
