"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to register my comments based on the arguments made by my colleague in the Senate Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget, Sen. Kagwe. These petitions, in my opinion, will either break or make the Senate in the eyes of the public. In many occasions, when the petitioners present their petitions, they look at the Senate as the House of last resort or as a place where they can find refuge from the plunder that is being carried out in the country by most governors. It will be a great adversity to the promise of devolution if we let these governors to go scot free. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I sit in this Committee and I have had an opportunity to look at petitions, not only by residents of Bungoma County, but also from Bomet county, which has been concluded. You can clearly see that money has been lost.We have however been reduced to a House of “spouters” who make a lot of noise without giving directions to the country. I do not think we shall be forgiven by Kenyans. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
