    "content": "officers of county governments who think it is their time to eat know that the time has virtually come to an end by virtue of this amendment. I am asking fellow Senators to support this amendment because this is one of the ways that we can protect our counties and bring on board and inform county governors that this Senate stands for prudence under Article 207. We stand for accountability under the Constitution and forever, we will keep to our mandate in protecting counties notwithstanding any disputes or altercations we may have. Therefore, they must understand where we are coming from. Therefore, in an attempt to win them, as we agreed, we must use a soft approach to talk to governors; they are part and parcel of our mandate. They should understand that when we sit in the Senate, we are not sitting to fight with them, but sitting to protect their turf. Therefore, they should know that as their partners, any of the issues that we have raised, particularly on this matter must be forwarded to this Senate, so that we do what we are mandated to do under Article 96(3). If you allow me, I would like to request that you defer putting the question in terms of Standing Order No. 54(3) as there appears to be no requisite delegations to vote."
