    "content": "All that we are asking is to be guided properly on how to do the amendment; if you then rule that it cannot come from Members, then we need to be guided. Let me tell you one that affects you directly. This is particular issue in equipment leasing; it is just like the issue in the maintenance fuel levy. If you take Kshs3.3 billion and give it to the governors in a blanket manner, so many constituencies in this country that have been getting this money hitherto will have a high likelihood of missing it; use of it will become subject to the discretion of a governor, who looks after a whole county. This condition has to go with the fact that it has to devolve down to the constituency. It should be understood that it will not only protect us from corrupt engineers, but also from jumping from fire to fire by giving it to the governors to marginalize constituencies."
