    "content": "I believe that we should all embrace the road that has been paved by the two leaders. Yesterday the President spoke well about the support the Government is giving to devolution, including the increase of resources allocated to devolved governments. He also expressed his fears about corruption eating into the resources given to county governments. We are experiencing teething problems as a House because we participate in the allocation of revenue to the counties. We want to make sure that the resources reach the level they are supposed to, including the smallest parts of villages. Let the people in the village feel that, at least, the Government is down there with the people. Let them experience the national cake that has been devolved to the smallest unit of government and feel that, indeed, they are enjoying the sweat of their work. We want devolved functions to succeed and the national Government to keep on releasing funds to county governments in time so that they can also plan and make sure the funds are appropriately used."
