"content": "The thing that they should understand is that we are here because of our people and not for anybody else. These pretenders to the throne, the so-called paper kings, who are the governors, should not benefit from the corruption cartels that are in place in their counties. So, I wish to join my colleagues to say that the orders given by the activist judges in the Judiciary should be disregarded because they are null and void, as hon. Kaluma has said. They are null and void. It is just a decision on paper; it is not hinged on any constitutional basis. We are asking the Senate not to back down. Let them do the worst. Let them take each of the Senators to court for contempt. Let them take us to court for contempt. Lastly, if we are going to give funds, billions of shillings, to the governors and they are not used for their purpose--- We should stop any disbursement of funds to the counties. If it does not reach our people, then what is it for? Are we also going to be party to corruption? Let the Senate stand firm. We are with the Senate and we are within the law."
