I would request the leadership of this House to consider if it could be possible for us to have the kamukunji on Thursday, so that we can conclude on this matter. In the following week before we break for recess, we should be able to debate and adopt the allocation of revenues to counties. Madam Temporary Speaker, this is critical. I agree with Sen. Aaron Cheruiyot, the Senate Majority Leader, that for the 11 counties, unless the allocation reaches a minimum of Kshs6 billion, we might not see any meaningful development in those counties. ... view
