    "content": "should concern this Senate is the misuse of ward, sub-county and village administrators who are paid by county resources and are called public servants. They are also part of county public service but are now chief agents of organizing goons against political competitors of governors. All these culminates to lack of accountability when it comes to the usage of that money. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, whether you refer this petition to the Committee on County Public Accounts or that of Finance, Commerce and Budget, that Committee must take this matter seriously and provide direction to this House. The Auditor-General must take our concerns seriously. The Controller of Budget, whose responsibility is to determine that resources are given within the required budgetary procedure must take her job seriously. I am not a prophet but let me say without any fear of contradiction that after next elections when many new governors will be elected, more than half of the current governors will be locked up in jail. It is because that is when the truth will come out about what they are trying to cover up in so far as misuse of public funds is concerned. As the Senate and bearing in mind that we have a responsibility under Article 96, it is important for us to continue pointing out these issues. Even if no one is listening to us, that time when these people will be reading newspapers behind bars, they will remember that what Sen. Murkomen, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and Sen. (Dr.) Machage told them was the truth that they should have heeded to for them not to be eating maharagwe in Shimo la Tewa prison."
