    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, listening to the Petition presented by our colleague Sen. Wamatangi on behalf of the Kiambu County Assembly, there is evidence - I do not want to talk about things – or indications that there are malpractices that are going on in a number of counties. Many of them do not come to the fore. I thank the Kiambu County Assembly Members for being courageous and coming out openly to bring out this kind of malpractices in our counties. Immediately after our election, there were issues in Turkana which were ably addressed by this Senate then. It is time for the Senate also to up its sleeves and ensure that we serve Kenyans. This is why we were calling for what we were trying to call the County Development Coordination Board. When issues are not brought to the table for discussion on how we should prioritise our projects, then we are bound to experience these kinds of issues. I thank Sen. Wamatangi, MCAs and the larger Kiambu public for their good efforts."
