    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I usually go to my county every weekend, and all I see is poverty. People do not know what they will feed on; it is a dire situation. If the economy is growing, we expect to see that trickling down to the common people. How can the economy be growing yet we are being told that the allocation to the counties in the next financial year will be slashed by about Kshs9 billion? That is a contradiction, because if the economy is growing, then we expect that the revenue collected is higher. Therefore, it follows that the allocation to the counties should increase. Why should we have cuts? These are things that disturb me. We are being told that the economy is growing, yet there is poverty on the ground, because you can see an increase in the level of poverty. It is a contradiction that remittances to the counties will be slashed."
