"content": "Hon. Speaker, thank you for the opportunity. I rise to support the Motion, though grudgingly, as my colleagues have said, because of the worry that the governors may not utilize the funds for the development of the counties as it was intended. According to me, we are saying that there is a runaway wage bill in Kenya but the solution is not doing away with women leaders of this country. The solution is not to contract the Budget but to make more money that will be used for our development. The women of Kenya have only had the only chance to be in the political decision making in the country. I hear my colleagues debating about sending away women - those nominated and those elected - to solve the problem, but that is not the solution. The best thing to do is to make sure that the amount of wastage of money that this Government, or previous Governments, have experienced has had the cumulative effect of a runaway wage bill.
