    "content": "We know that NG-CDF has done so much. In this country, every village you go, you will see a small project of NG-CDF. As you compare this with the county governments, the devolution we are talking about and those big projects, when it comes to the counties, they are not felt in some villages. How I wish that we get a framework on how to increase the percentage of this NG-CDF so that it can reach the common citizen in the village. That is very critical. The NG-CDF Act has undergone a lot of transformation. I am told in the Seventh Parliament MPs used to write cheques, but things have changed. As we speak right now, an MP is not involved in the NG-CDF matters, but only oversees it. So, as we move to the new Constitution of 2010, whereby MPs only provide oversight role, it is high time that we strengthened the NG-CDF by training the fund managers so that whatever they put in place must be in line with the local community."
