    "content": "when a serious decision has been made whereby an amendment is done to a formula used to allocate resources to constituencies. It is mischievous and deceptive, I am sorry to say that. It is very sad where tyrants use their numbers without due care to democracy and the rest of the country which has been marginalized for the last 50 years because of poor policies. It is a sad day for this country that this Parliament does not consult. Decisions are made and sneaked in by some Chairs of Committees who are full of mischief and malice. Decisions are made, where some lose while others gain. In any competition, some will lose while others will gain, but let us have a fair game. I was in this Chamber during the Tenth Parliament. When we reviewed the CDF Act, it was done through consultation. That is why we have the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA). This is a commission that looks at all parameters and ensures fair development of the entire nation of Kenya. Just a few minutes ago, some people have lost up to Kshs10 million while others have gained up to Kshs20 million and yet they are the same people who have marginalized us for the last 50 years. That is why I do not have a single hospital in my constituency while there is one in every village in Central, parts of Rift Valley and other areas or the so-called Jubilee strongholds. It is a shame and a disgrace."
