    "content": "the Public Accounts Committee of the County Assembly of Machakos. They came in solidarity with the Governor. Our Chairman was thrown into confusion but he said that our Constitution allows any member of the public to attend Committee meetings. Therefore, this training is timely, so that the Members of County Assembly (MCAs) can know that they have a role to play in oversighting the governors. Members of the County Assembly of Kakamega, I want to absolve your Speaker from what Sen. Khaniri said. It is true that Gov. Oparanya has not appeared before the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC), but the Speaker of the County Assembly of Kakamega has appeared and done a good job. Give him our greetings when you go back. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am so proud of the Speaker of the County Assembly of Kakamega because he has written to this Senate complaining that the development budget for the construction of a chamber for the County Assembly of Kakamega has been denied. As if that is not enough, this week, the governor cut the supplementary budget which had allocated Kshs277 million for the construction of the county assembly. He will give the county assembly Kshs100 million only and take the remaining Kshs177 million to the office of the governor. This is the work of my dear MCAs from Kakamega. Your legacy will be that you failed to build a county assembly. Finally, the matters of the collapse of Bukhungu Stadium and the stage-managed stealing of computers from the procurement office are already in this Senate. We hope that you will also play your role. If you do not, elections are coming next year and people will speak."
