For now, what we know is that the National Treasury and the National Assembly have proposed Kshs405 billion to be the money that will be shared among counties. We have our own position in the Senate of Kshs465 billion. Mediation will kick in and the work of the Senators that we are sending for mediation is to ensure that we get a lot more money to share. If the worst comes to the worst and we get exactly what the National Assembly and the national Treasury have proposed---"}]}
