This is very important and I want to urge county governments to ensure that this revenue is distributed fairly. If you look at the CRA formula, it is very clear. It has given money to county governments on the basis of population, land, poverty, equal share ...

Therefore we want to urge the CRA and TA to cost all the functions which have been transferred, so that we do not have any citizen in this country suffering because of the disparities in the formulas which have not been amended to suit the requirements of the Constitution.
