For instance the residents of kirinyaga and nyandarua have been complaining perennially due to lack of roads and other infrastructure. https://www.nation.co.ke...ttle-development-222952
 Even in nairobi, just go to kasarani, roysambu, pipeline etc you will find that they are no inner roads or sewer and yet nairobi is said to be very developed and thus should get less funds despite producing 60% of GDP. Mnadanganywa that you are very developed so others can siphon all the funds to their counties.  There is another very developed Nairobi. This one here: Hata huko runda residents have no govt water or sewer, they formed runda water company to supply water coz kanjo water was non existent and also all of them rely on septic tanks. Same with karen hakuna sewer only septic tanks and boreholes + water trucks hapo dagoreti corner for water. All that development you see there is funded privately by the residents not devolution taxes. Very true. We all know this devolution was never about development. It was an argument by those who felt there was too much eating at the central govt whereby they couldn't participate and therefore needed to devolve corruption. Sadly, they won the day since the powers that be did not want to lose support. So nowadays you have a president who goes to foreign capitals to beg for money, comes home, hands over the money to governors who end up eating a huge chunk. Then the president is left spending sleepless nights wondering how to repay since the loan money was spent in non-income generating activities. For how long are we going to live this lie? Devolution is working very well for those who understand it, look at Makueni. Those who still dont get it are left to butt lick. On that note, money should follow the people not the land.

The only reason the duo never lost a motion was because, during their time, jubilee was one united party with a clear majority in the house. In the current stalemate, people like Murkomen are against the bill despite his county being a beneficiary. For him I believes it is a case of payback time. Kang'ata may be a poor leader but on this one he is blameless. There is alot of politics involved. Remember RAO does not wish to antagonize the counties which are likely to "lose" money and hence his troops are unable to side with UK on this one.

Point of correction- Luo Nyanza Senators sided with Kang'ata. Murkomen, Sakaja, Kindiki, Sam Ongeri and Nyamira Senator surprisingly voted against the motion.

Threats are a pointer for lack of substance. It's sad senators cannot debate soberly without looking over their shoulders. A debate held six times without an amicable settlement shows how indecisive these characters are. "Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least." Goethe

That said, the biggest gainers in the new formula will be nandi, kakamega, uasin gishu, siaya, nakuru, kisumu who will get about 1B extra each. Muranga will only get just a few more millions about 90m. Infact tharaka nithi will lose.  Proverbs 13:11 Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.

This bill is a typical case of "divide and conquer"! attempting to remind senators that they should vote for it because they will 'gain' at the expense of others while trumping on the spirit of the constitution that created the senate in the first place. Appealing to narrow primal interests to get numbers is an old tactic. This was the mindset of akina Moi and Kibaki... giving tokens to ethnic groups to rope them in. Remember akina Ojode turning down ministerial posts when akina Kibaki attempted to rope them in. I am very proud of Kakamega, Kisii, Nairobi and Kajiado and any other county that voted against this bill. They were shocked when they saw people vote against what appeared to be in their interest. We should be striving at ending up in the 3rd picture not going back to the first! We have been there for a while and we all know it doesn't work  All Mushrooms are edible!
