    "content": "With the amendments that will be coming, I will strongly support this Bill. I urge all the Members of this National Assembly to rise up to the occasion, take up your role as the people who are mandated by your constituents. Please, let us not forget that our constituencies are part and parcel of the counties that we come from. We cannot delink ourselves from the county governments and say that there are county assemblies to provide oversight. Yes, and with all due respect to the county assemblies, they are there, but we also comprise a part of those counties and we must also play a role in what is being done in those counties. Best of all is the fact that we are not asking to be the ones to go and implement those projects. We are only asking that there be modalities where if a road is being done in Kikuyu Constituency within a certain ward, there is forum where we sat down at the planning stage and agreed that road number “A” will be done by the county government, road number “B” will be done at the constituency level through the CDF and road number “C” will be done by the national Government at the Ministerial level."
