    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support this Motion by Hon. Keter on the establishment of a national rugby union stadium in the country. We are aware that the Kenya rugby team has been performing tremendously well. One of the manifestos of the Jubilee Government, when we were seeking for votes, was establishing stadia in the country. Establishment of stadia is also a function of county governments. In my county of Trans Nzoia, Kenyatta Stadium, which was the premier stadium within the North Rift area, is a pale shadow of itself. This is one stadium that I would urge the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) to look into. We are aware that the county government set aside money for the construction and rehabilitation of Kenyatta Stadium, but its land has been grabbed. The county government has failed for the last five years to rehabilitate the stadium and make it better. This is among the key pillars that the county government of Trans Nzoia is supposed to have initiated among other things that have failed to be started such as the referral hospital and the bus stage. It is a shame that with all that kind of corruption happening in that place, heads are not rolling."
