    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, after consultation and in-depth analysis of the issues that had originally been raised by the Member of Parliament for Vihiga, we had amicably agreed on what needs to be done. However, since this is the property of the House, it is true that I need to clarify some of those issues. It is true that the Mbale Mosque Committee did write to the ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran just like many other committees always write to different countries and different ambassadors. They requested for assistant to construct a madrasa, classes, offices, hostels, shops and an office within the Mbale Mosque premises. The Iranian Embassy has since sent a technical inspection team to the mosque upon which an appraisal was done and the project was recommended for assistance. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the extent to which and purpose of the assistance was that the embassy decided to give US$120,000 from what is generally known as the Overseas Development Assistance for the direct development, construction and refurbishment of the aforesaid mosque at Mbale. It is the prerequisite and the prerogative of the Iranian Embassy to make recommendations on how they will refurbish or reconstruct these premises."
