If you see the way governors are acting, you will get shocked. Sometimes, I hear contractors working in county governments calling me and asking me to give them a road the way the governor is giving. I have no authority and mandate to give anybody a road as a Member of Parliament, yet governors give roads out like dishing out sweets. Even dishing out sweets is difficult because you have to go to a shop and buy them. Governors just give roadside declarations which this country had come out from long time ago. There must be a system that holds governors accountable and involves public participation."}
