    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very important Committee. I support its composition and the way it has steered the business of this House. We need to understand whether this Committee is mandated to prosecute governors who have negated its process and procedure. Many times, some governors have abused their offices and continue to do so as they wait for more money. So, we need to be told by this Committee whether the moment they present reports to this House, this is final or if we will only know about what happens in the county governments through reports. Many things happen before and even after the presentation of this report. As soon as a governor is found guilty of having misused public funds, he should be named and prohibited from doing certain other things. Another issue is that, as we continue to give money to counties, even after the Committee has discussed it, some governors do well. They should be congratulated. They should act as role models to those who are not doing well. The governors who should have been impeached by this House continue enjoying the benefits of getting money from the exchequer. They continue using it the way they want, including, hiring goons so that their seats are well protected. They continue doing so without any consideration of the role of the Senate or the Senator of that county. My worry is that much as we talk about these reports ---"
