    "content": "ending in about 15 days. So, how did the Government intend to give these monies to the constituencies? Let me say something which went on, on the Floor of this House earlier this year before the majority of us were here. Hon. Robinson Githae stood on this podium and lied to this nation that the Government had released 100 per cent of CDF funds. It was in December. It is in the HANSARD. So, there should not be any reason for the Government to lie to its nationals. We have projects which we had proposed. Hon. Speaker, Sir, you know the country is now conflicted by people who are saying that these MPs should not control the CDF and there is nowhere in law where any Member of Parliament is controlling CDF. Somebody somewhere is busy telling Kenyans wrong things about Members of Parliament. The Government is the one which is guilty because yesterday during debate on Supplementary Budget, which you rightfully ruled that we have to look at, Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) was carefully removed. How would the Government be serious if they are asking for Supplementary Budget but they are removing the allocation in CDF? We need you, hon. Speaker, to save this country and order this Chairman or the Leader of Majority Party who keeps saying this is his Government, so that these Members of Parliament can have this money today."
