"content": "I stand guided, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Trans Nzoia County owes KEMSA Kshs41 million. Therefore, instead of paying Kshs142 million to traders as advance payment – I do not know who allowed them to make this payment – why not use this money to pay their debt with KEMSA and get more supplies for the hospitals? Therefore, instead of us, as the Senate, complaining, we should all agree on the way forward, because we seem to be powerless. All we do is wait for all these scandals to happen, maybe document them, recommend for their prosecution and then the matter rests there. Is that what we want to do, as a Senate? With these few remarks, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to support the statement of my brother, Sen. Khaniri, and request that we sit down as a House and agree on what our role is in devolution. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
