    "content": "I will support this Motion because of the specific county governments - the eight or nine that we are told - have made this request and their appeals, which our Committee has listened to. I have run through the recommendations of the Committee and feel that we should grant these eight because they are not major. However, we must look at the major issues. We should not keep on allocating funds to counties without holding them accountable. We are trying our best through our County Public Accounts and Investments Committee. County governors have been held to account severally. However, I call upon state agencies to act on where there was impunity in terms of haphazard hiring of people, trying to please cronies and political affiliates. There was no seriousness on the part of a number of county governments. As the Senate, God and even our own communities will hold us responsible for this. We must come out clearly and speak against these vices that happened in the county governments during our tenure. Finally, we also need to prop up the Intergovernmental Relations Committee. I do not feel its presence all. The TA under Kinuthia was much better. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
