"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to confess to this House that I was the last Mayor of Mavoko and I used to collect Kshs1.5 billion. The other day, I was shocked to see Machakos County declaring Kshs400 million from the whole county. Remember, there used to be Mavoko Municipal Council, Machakos Municipal Council, Masaku County Council and Kangundo County Council. So, with all those local authorities combined, I expect Machakos County to be collecting more than Kshs3 billion. I am wondering why Senators cannot introduce guidelines and structures to the money that we are releasing to the counties. Governors must be transparent enough to tell Kenyans how much money they are collecting from Kenyans. Governors are collecting money from all the mama mbogas, slaughter houses and quarries. That is the money they are using to entertain themselves."
