"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I support this Motion and say that what has been outlined in this Motion is critical; budget making processes, revenue allocation and legislative process especially the interference from the Judiciary. I know from the CoG perspective, that they may praise it and say even the Judiciary has helped to entrench devolution. However, I know from the Senate perspective that many of the problems that we have had are as a result of the decisions of the Judiciary on issues brought by the CoG. For example, we know we have impeached governors. That was going to be one of the truths that was going to strengthen Senate but it has not worked. There is the issue of oversight over the national Government and some bodies within national Government at the county level; some devolved functions whose devolution has not been followed by the money that is needed for their functionality."
