"content": " Hon. Speaker, let me go straight to acknowledging delay in completion of the said Doldol-Nanyuki Road in Laikipia Constituency caused by non-performance by the contractor who was engaged to do the works. Shibli Enterprise Limited has been slow in the process. We have had several meetings to engage him to expedite the works. I had a meeting about this with Hon. Sarah Korere. We are working on ensuring that we accelerate that work and even provide enough funds to address the pending bill on this road. Two management meetings have been held with the contractor. They were asked to go back to site and resume works. However, they have not heeded the call. Therefore, the employer will seek recourse on the next step of action according to the contract’s terms. The scope included the following: 1. Site clearance to include heavy bush clearing, tree and stump removal, evacuation and filling for structures. 2. Culverts and drainage works to include majorly new culvert installation. 3. Grading and gravelling works to include light grading of the whole section and spot gravelling. 4. Road furniture repairs maintenance to include installation of 20 concrete bollards. The contractor has no outstanding payment. I am sorry I indicated that they had outstanding payment. I think the point was that we discussed the funds allocated to the road with Mheshimiwa. Mheshimiwa, we need to have another cup of tea. Regarding the Mbaraki Stadium, I have worked very closely with Hon. Osoro and Hon. Faith Gitau. Today, its progress is 80 per cent complete. We have small challenges with the sitting area and common amenities like toilets and changing rooms."

"content": "I confirm that I held a meeting yesterday. We are looking at the NYS moving in to do most of the handwork. The Kenya Power is supporting us in doing most of the lighting. However, I confirm that the places that we will ship asphalt, tartan and tarmac are installed. That will be done on time and the stadium will be ready. We are also looking at the other gymnasium stadium for indoor games. Yesterday we gave an indicative budget approval to ensure we can run through the coming three weeks and make the facility ready for our Parliament to host the East African Community Inter- Parliamentary Games with a dignity better than we have been hosted in other countries. Hon. Osoro, Hon. Gitau and I are on top of it. I thank you for your support. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."

"content": ", bandits shot two people dead just the other day. They suffered serious gunshot wounds. They would have been saved if they had reached Nanyuki in good time. They could not because of the status of that road. It is also clear that Shibli Enterprise Limited does not have the capacity to go back to that site. The earlier you expedite the process of bringing in an alternative person, the better for us. I think that contract covers 15 kilometres. The KeNHA is taking care of a certain area of the zero kilometre of that road. They brought a company called NexoTech on site. It was to do some emergency works. That contractor reported for three days and disappeared. You then wonder what emergency work means when there is none. Actually, road users took it upon themselves to construct that road using their resources and hands while we know KeNHA gave the contract to a contractor who disappeared. I have called the Upper Eastern Regional Engineer several times. He confesses to me that the contractor cannot even pick his calls. We are left as lame ducks. We do not know what we are waiting for. Again, Laikipia North is the biggest constituency in our county. It is bigger than Laikipia East Constituency and Laikipia West Constituency combined. There is no road network. The road that connects Timau and Lokusero all the way to the constituency’s headquarter at Doldol is completely washed out. That road is under KeNHA in Upper Eastern."
