    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is a lot of wastage at the county governments and they need to reduce that. We have seen corruption of the highest order at the county governments. Money is usually allocated in this Parliament. If there is any increase of money, it will come from this Parliament. We have to sit down and the Senate has to sit down and see what they have done with the previous monies to determine what we will give them in the next financial year. But right now what the governors are asking, we cannot give them. They should know that, that is not their money. That is taxpayers’ money and should be respected the way we respect the money that we have given to the rest of the sectors. We have given to the energy sector and they need to be accountable for what we have given them. If it is education and I am wondering when they say we increase that amount of money, where have they kept that amount of money? Where do they want us to go and collect that money? They should know that the more we collect the money, the more we have different sectors that need it."
