    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I remind this House that as we look into the issues of devolution, we should remember that these councillors were able to become mayors and to manage their respective municipalities. It is, therefore, important that as we are re- looking into our new Constitution, we should find ways of minimizing the wage bill by making the MCAs to become County Executive Members (CECs), because they are able people. As we are headed to the forthcoming referendum – which is inevitable and we are sure that we are going to have it – we need to look into matters that are going to reduce our wage bill. We will do so by proposing that these MCAs be given a chance to become CECs in their respective county governments."
