    "content": "We will be able to say, “No, that hospital ward you are saying was build does not exist. In fact, this is the uploaded picture of the hospital or the sight.” This is so that we have a public interface where mwananchi can integrate and do oversight. Individual Senators will not be able to do oversight on their own. We need to empower the mwananchi who is living in Kasarani, Kibra, Laini Saba, Lindi or Kilimani ward to participate by telling us what the county government has done. However, they do not know. If, today I am able to go a ward in Bushang’ala in Ikolomani Kakamega County, and tell them, “For the last five years, Kshs200 million has been set aside for this water project. Have you seen it?” Wananchi will start chasing away even governors from those meetings. They will start saying, “No, No! Before you speak, tell us. We have been shown that you have been allocating millions of shillings to a water project or an early childhood development education (ECDE) claiming it is in this ward yet we have not seen it.” Oversight without information is dead, Sen. Olekina. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
