    "content": "Thank you, Sen. Mutahi, for that clarification. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, just to finalize my last minute, we must not disenfranchise counties so much so that they are unable to continue to be productive. Therefore, we must continue to keep them competitive. While others are able to catch up, those counties that are competitive must be kept competitive. I assure you that if you give us the right support – Sen. Murungi tried to light us up when he was the Minister for Energy – the whole of this country and our cities will turn bright; they will have colour, they will have development and they will have pomp. But you must give the right quality to devolution; you must give the right finances to ensure that, that vision is realized; we must have devolution that is economic; not devolution that is simply political by just giving our governors sirens and chase cars. That is why we all call them “warlords,” because we are not giving them money to do the business they were sent to do in those counties. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support the Motion."
