    "content": "Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not know why you are not my substantive Speaker. You get it so well. As we put the country on notice of the fact that it is President Uhuru Kenyatta to blame, I want it to be forever clear that this blame must be apportioned appropriately. There is blame on the national Government but there is even greater blame on the Council of Governors (CoG). Health, for God’s sake is a function under the new Constitution which is fully devolved! I therefore ask; how and why I would want to be a Governor who sits in my office paying out money for entertainment and hospitality bills and not spend that money on giving doctors a better pay so that health is functional in my county. I salute the Governors of Bomet and Kiambu counties, Gov. Rutto and Gov. Kabogo respectively. They are the two governors where services are functional. Why can the other Governors not borrow a leaf from the two governors? Other useless Governors have been saying that “I went to the university and attained a degree in management and that is why I am a governor”. Who told them that we got them elected to be managers? We elected them to be governors. The job of a governor is to govern. You have to ensure that the systems below you are working. They are supposed to allow the professionals, doctors, engineers, agriculturalist and all others, to work. It is very painful. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in six months’ time when the CORD/NASA Government takes over, we are going to make sure that the standard is rated so high---"
