    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, if there is a Committee that needs to be given more funds, it is the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget. We have many petitions. I am happy to say that I have not seen Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o who is the Chairperson of our sub-committee on Petitions. This is a wake-up call because in the recent past, I have seen that the Kenyan public has woken up to the fact that the Senate is the only hope, including the fact that, Sen. Hassan has brought today those we considered “Saul.” Now they become “Paul.” We hope they will continue that way. We have roughly five to six petitions on irregularities in finances in counties. We should be having a minimum of 47 petitions here because this exercise is going on everywhere. Therefore, we ask you to facilitate the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget so that we can call special auditors quickly. The challenge we had in Narok is that the Auditor-General took two months to give us a report. Even then, we were not satisfied with what he gave us. Please, facilitate us so that we can help this country and nation to get to the bottom of financial mismanagement at the counties."
