    "content": "Thank you hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support this Report as amended. The reason why I am saying this is because our people are suffering out there. That is because we give our governors money but they are not bothered about our people. If you go to hospitals, especially the Level 4 and Level 5, you will find that there is no medicine. There is also no medicine in the dispensaries that were built using money from CDF. For example, in my place, there is one dispensary where we used to buy things for. We took the Governor to see it and take over its management but since then, he has not done so. So, we are not killing devolution. But just like Jesus Christ came to this world to save and heal our people, if we sit here as hon. Members of the National Assembly and our people are dying because they do not get anything, then there is no need for us to be in this House. We are the ones allocating the money and yet, the governors are not bothered. Their work is just to give MCAs money to go everywhere, when they know that their work is to help the people who elected them. That is the reason why we are saying: “Thank you”, to the Committee and its Chairlady. Thank you very much because when you sat down with your Committee, you agreed to think about Kenyans. I am here to support. Thank you very much."
