    "content": "This is in the principle of natural justice. We need an audit. I heard someone allege that the Governor of Migori County has Kshs2.5 billion in his account. I wonder where the auditors are. Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has questioned this because there has been no specific Petition to the Senate or any other agency. Therefore, for auditing purposes and in the spirit of fighting corruption and ensuring transparency, equity and fairness, I applaud you for this part. It will now be easy to visit a county assembly to counter-check any malicious rejection of Petitions to the county assembly. Madam Temporary Speaker, Section 91 of the County Governments (Amendment) Act, provides how communication should be done within the structure of the county. Therefore, I agree totally with Sen. Pareno on this aspect. In this process, we need audits to ensure that any Petition that is received by the county assembly is well recorded, captured and indicated. Clause 5 (2) states:- “The Clerk shall, if satisfied that the petition meets the requirements specified under this Act, forward the petition to the Speaker for reporting in the county assembly”."
