    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to thank all the Senators for their contributions because I am a Member of the Committee that came up with this Report and that is why I would have not felt bad even if I was not going to speak. They have agreed with our proposals and we are most grateful. This Government has been in office for about two years, and I am sure that governors and MCAs have now started to realize that there are auditors who audit expenditure. I think we should not keep on crying about what the governors are doing. In this country, we have all institutions which have been empowered by law to decide for the county governments. We can pass any law provided we do not conflict with the current Constitution. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, governors have realized that without the Senate, they will be working in futility. For example, when we suggested adding them more money, one of the governors stood before us and said that he is satisfied with the allocation because he has no problem and we wished he understood the problem of the people who elected him because none of them would dare do that."
