    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I regret having accepted to be informed because that is not very relevant. However, law enforcement officers must take responsibility. We hope that as we investigate the circumstances under which that accident occurred, the traffic police officers will take responsibility, especially the Traffic Commandant within my county and Uasin Gishu County. That aside, I want to take this opportunity to congratulate my Chairman for bringing this Motion. Some of us, during the 2010 Referendum, opposed this Constitution. We are lucky that you were part of the team that opposed the new Constitution. However, whereas you and I have understood the contents of the new Constitution, those with whom we worked so hard to ensure that we defeat the Constitution have remained at the same level. It is important that we are able to carry out civic education especially with regard to devolution. The kind of ignorance that this country has witnessed courtesy of serious leaders like Governors--- I have been to forums where Governors stand up and ask wananchi; what has the Senator done? Which road or bridge have they built? They know very well that all the resources that are available to county governments and to those Governors are actually devolved and taken back to their counties by Senators. Therefore, it is dishonest and I think these are some of the lies and myths that we have to deal with when we carry out some of these serious civic education programmes."
