    "content": "money that we got last year from our Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) kitty and we started initiating projects. Personally, I have initiated about 15 projects so far. I am saying this with a lot of honesty. I know that these county governments are still coming up but unless we keep putting pressure on them to do what they are supposed to do, they will not. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the other issue was lack of priorities among our counties. The health sector is very important in this country, particularly in providing services to our people. The Level 5 hospitals that we have in this country are very few and we should be able to actually fund them so that they provide the most needed services to our people. What my colleague said about Kisii Level 5 Hospital is true. My people from Narok County use that hospital but it is a pity when you take your sick people there. You are told that there are no beds and that your five patients will share one bed and yet they are very sick. So, you are left wondering where the money goes to. I do not think the money is enough. It is a drop in the ocean. Unless we properly cost the Level 5 hospitals, as well as other functions in the counties, we are not headed in the right direction as a country."
