    "content": "We have the Constitution, which provides for the devolved system of government. However, there is no comparison between what the NGCDF has been able to achieve with about Kshs100 million, with the billions of shillings that are being channelled to the county governments. It is high time that there is even restructuring at that level so that if there is devolution, it is not only for employment but it also meets the needs of the people. For example, a lot of money is spent in my county in meetings in the name of participation, but it is for campaign for the incumbents. In the process, funds are not channelled to development. In fact, you wonder about very many things at the county level. For example, you may see a governor travelling in a helicopter to open one Early Childhood Development (ECD) classroom, with an entourage of 100 vehicles. By the end of the day, the money spent by the county boss to go and open a single project is more than the money for the project."
