"content": "No, I am speaking from experience and please, let us tolerate each other. You may have your views about the governors, but I also have mine. I know there are excesses in as far as governors are concerned, but we should also not be very unfair to them. In this country, we are adopting this devolution. We support this devolution. We may think we are helping devolution, yet we are fighting devolution. Therefore, even as I agree that the Senate was perfectly in order because that is what is provided under Article 96; they play oversight role on the national revenue that is given to counties, I do not see why it was difficult for them to invite the relevant officers in the county to answer those questions. That is what we do in Parliament. We used to invite Permanent Secretaries and not Ministers as the accounting officers. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
