    "content": "problems in Kakamega County. The problem has been compounded by a notoriously hard-headed governor who has refused to appear before the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC). He is the only one out of the 47 who has refused to even honour summonses before the CPAIC. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we cannot deliberate these issues until he avails himself in person to take responsibility for the billions of shillings that are being pumped to Kakamega. We should not blame the Members. It is only that we are being frustrated. If that can happen to the Senate, I can only imagine what the county assembly, which is our small brother, is going through. It is worse because they cannot hold the county government accountable. So, I hope we will break this deadlock and get Kakamega County Government accountable, so that the people of Kakamega will get value for money for the projects. What happened in Bukhungu is only an indication of many other projects that have been happening in the county. I welcome the delegation and hope they will take their oversight role seriously as we do. They should always seek legal interventions like we have done. In terms of summoning the governor, we will not relent because that is what we are supposed to. We will continue to update the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) and this Senate about the attendance of Governor Oparanya."
