"content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, one of the reasons why Kenyans sought a new constitutional dispensation was to address some of the past historical, educational and other injustices. In their own wisdom, they sought to have a devolved government and in that devolved government, in their own wisdom, they decided to have county government. What we are proposing today and if it goes like that, is going to kill the very tree of having devolution. I do not agree and I hardly disagree with my good friend, my lawyer, hon. Munya, but on this one, he got it wrong. University of Nairobi (UoN) alone over the last two years has had more than 200,000 graduates. That is an insult to Kenyans! Kenyans have gone to school. Kenya is not an illiterate society. Let us be honest; we cannot legislate for a selected group because we have the advantage here today. The councillors are there, we are here and we cannot just make legislations that are just meant to help us. We must legislate for now, the future and tomorrow. We must legislate for every Kenyan – the 40 million Kenyans."
