"content": "is probably the rural thinking in my mind - where if there is a problem, then my constituents would run to me and I know who to target my hustles and tackle rather than being part of a system that you may not even make much impact. In fact that is why I disagreed with Members who wanted to be in the management committees of counties, where Senators were supposed to chair and governors were supposed to be secretary and Members were to form the county board. I was not for the idea because I do not want to be part of failure of another person in management. If someone has been elected as governor let him deliver services. If that person fails let him fail alone. I do not want to go down with another person. You can see the problems we now have with our roads. No one knows which is a county, or national Government road. Many times I see people blaming me for roads that I have absolutely no role over. I have no resources. I have no budgetary allocation for them. So, with those many remarks I oppose this Bill. Thank you."
