    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I contributed to the debate on the Committee on Legislation on Royalties Accruing from Exploitation of Natural Resources in the Counties, but did not complete what I was saying at that point in time. I stopped at a point when I was saying that the idea of devolution in Kenya has been, by and large, about issues regarding resources. I have said this time and again; that; devolution was not intended to be about flags by our county governors. It was not intended to be about escorts for our county governors. It was intended to be a matter of resources and particularly resources that are either exploited from those counties or those that are shared in form of national resources. It beats logic that every county or any group of human beings or societies would be next to natural resources and not reap the benefits. Therefore, it is important that this Senate asserts itself to ensure that those natural resources that are close to a county benefit the locals."
