    "content": "meant by devolution. We need to devolve as much as possible, so that Kenyans on the ground can access essential services. What is visible in every part of this country today are projects that have been implemented through the CDF. That is why we are very passionate about this Bill. That is why we really thank the Mover for bringing the Bill to the House. We, in the northern part of Kenya, have been having injustices for a very long time. This is now the time for us to catch up with the rest of Kenya through appropriate development. We should make sure that key projects are implemented in those parts of Kenya through the Equalisation Fund, the CDF and other funds that can be devolved to the constituencies. Alongside this, I appeal that we look at the funds going to the constituencies holistically with a view to coming up with an approach that will involve constituency MPs and County Women Representatives in planning for the monies. I would like the initiative to be a baby of all MPs."
