    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am a Member of the Constituencies Development Fund Committee. On 8th October, we sat with the Minister for Roads and agreed that he was going to hold on to the funds such that by the time he disburses them, it shall be done equally to all constituencies and not the 140 districts. We do not even know where he is getting the 140 districts, when we know that this country has over 250 districts. He has disbursed funds to only 140 districts. Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to come and mislead this House that the Act came in after the disbursement when by February this year, he had only disbursed Kshs1 billion out of a total of Kshs2.45 billion? The Assistant Minister should go back and apply the Act. I have a letter here which I wish to table. The Assistant Minister should go back and do the arithmetic so that we can get equal contribution per constituency and not district, where a district is getting Kshs63 million when another miserable district is getting Kshs3 million. Is it unfair?"
