    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this time and opportunity. Just as the Leader of the Majority Party has said, this Bill has been in our Committee and it is a short Bill. I stand here to second and agree that it is important to specifically identify county headquarters especially now that the Government is putting a lot of resources in construction, staffing and in many other issues. So this Bill, however short it is, gives direction to the locals and residents of these counties to identify where they can call the capital cities of those counties. We know that Wundanyi and Kutus have long been old district headquarters in the previous dispensations. So, we are not going the wrong way. It is just the way the residents have said. These are recognised and important towns or urban centres in our country. Some of them were town council headquarters and so in my view this is a good Bill. We really have no objection as a Committee. It is a matter of seconding this Bill and I totally agree with the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party. I also appeal to our colleagues in the House to support these amendments to the County Government (Amendment) Bill. I second."
