    "content": "You know they have a free blank cheque and some of them are competing with governors. So we have to be very careful. They are holding workshops and giving people money, but we cannot do the same with NG-CDF. So, I think elected constituency members are the ones who appropriate money. So, our brothers’ money must come and we are not denying them. The Member for Ijara being one of the few elected women like Millie Odhiambo when she hears CWR…I am sure every Member here will tell you that the problem in the constituency is our sisters blank cheque. I go to build a classroom and next to me tanks are being distributed. I cannot deal with water so I become a victim. But they are doing good social work. Before I finish, I want to say that, please, follow this money and protect Kenyan farmers because it is our obligation. You know President Uhuru Kenyatta had to pay the Kenya livestock farmers whose animals were confiscated by Tanzanian authorities and auctioned. Yes, he paid them from our taxes. You guys when it comes to the interest of our people we must stand together. This thing called East African Community (EAC) collapsed when Njonjo was the Attorney-General. That is why all the planes which were stationed at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) were taken over by Kenyans. Tanzanians took over all the ships together with the harbor. I know the Ugandans also took something. We took the East Africa Airlines that time. The President of the most powerful nation Donald Trump says all politics is local and he will fight for Americans. You are in a third world country and you do not want to fight for your people. So, we must fight for our people and this budget must enhance their livelihoods. I beg to second and ask the Chair to return his Kshs50 million."
