"content": "On roads, I have seen that we have increased the conditional grant for the Fuel Levy Fund from Kshs3.3 billion to Kshs4.3 billion. At the moment, we have new guidelines by the Kenya Roads Board (KRB) on the definition of county and national roads. I hope some roads will be left for the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) in that arrangement. We should see an improvement in the roads maintenance in our counties. In my Tharaka Nithi County, in the sub-county and constituency I come from, I have not seen a grader, bulldozer or excavator from the county government this year unless we have ceased being part of that county. As we give money, my pertinent question is on implementation. We must have a Bill that directs the county governments on how to distribute revenue in the county equitably rather than leaving it at the mercy of the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs)."
