"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also take this opportunity to thank the visiting delegations from Nyamira and Kakamega counties. I wish them well as they continue benchmarking. I thank them for coming in at the right time knowing that we are about to go for recess. The most important thing is what foundations we leave behind so that the next Senate and county assemblies will have a footing in what they would wish to do for their counties come 2017. I urge the MCAs to always remember that as you do your work, there are those who voted for you in a ward somewhere. At any given time, they would wish that you fight for them. Therefore, sometimes you can be with your governor, but in most occasions, you must stand with the challenges of your people. In so doing, they will respect you and know that they, indeed, voted in a leader. As you go back home, just remember to work for your people. It is important to give your people services, but not an individual."
