    "content": "is from the CDF. All the other money ends up with the purported Ministers or the so called executives at the county level. This is a very serious matter; this House cannot allow constant rate year in, year out. If you look at, for instance, the budget of the Judiciary it has more than quadrupled in the last five years. It was Kshs3 billion and now this year it is Kshs18 billion, yet the CDF allocation has remained constant at Kshs21 billion in the last five years. It is very serious. We should be talking about Kshs100 billion. If we were given the money that is lying at the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), we would absorb it very fast. I would like to assure the National Treasury that if this money is allocated to us, all of it will be used. For instance, in my own constituency, I have about five schools which still have matope classrooms. If I am given this money, I will be able to eradicate matope classrooms from my constituency."
