    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think that this is not a laughing matter. I really confirm that both Baringo and Kitui counties are marginalized areas. The fact that the former President Moi came from Baringo County is not enough to say that he should have taken all the money from this country to Baringo County. We know that people are being accused in Central Province and other places, because of such behaviour. Former President Moi was a forthright person and never misused the resources of this country to bring up Baringo County over other areas. Similarly, Kitui runs from Mwingi up to Ukasi, which is only 40 kilometres from Garissa County. You will be amazed to know that people are using donkeys all the way, looking for water all over. Similarly, Mombasa, although it contributes a lot of money through taxation, is given peanuts when it comes to the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and other things, in spite of the fact that they have over two million people to service. Therefore, I think that the truth must be said. Baringo and Kitui counties are marginalized and should be considered next time."
