    "content": "More importantly, I also like the fact that the Rural Electrification Fund has now gone to two levels; the county governments and also to the national Government. The reason why I say this is that we have increasingly seen that governors are now working because after one year now we can see in our respective constituencies, development taking root or going on. So, the views that some of us Members had last year are totally different because we have seen governors now taking their respective positions and carrying out their mandate either because they have learnt the ropes of governance or because they have seen the danger in which they can get themselves into, if they misappropriate funds or if they run their counties as their own personal fiefdoms. In fact, if every primary school is connected to our national grid, then we will see a lot of development because we have many of our youth who do not make it to the universities and who wish to join tertiary institutions, like youth polytechnics. I am happy to see that youth polytechnics have been given an allocation. It is also important to discourage the manner in which some of those youth polytechnics have been turned into other forms of tertiary institutions and even universities. This is because if you turn a youth polytechnic into a university, then obviously, you leave out a big section of our youth who are not able to join universities going to waste."
