    "content": "The other issue that was raised by this Committee and which is really important is the issue of project completion and variations. In my county, we have a stadium where we broke ground way back in 2014 and yet seven years down the line, this stadium has never been completed. It has taken over Kshs100 million of the funds that we send to our counties. This is unacceptable. If you start a project, you should complete it within time and any variation should be reasonable. It should not be so abnormal that you are not able to find funds to complete the project. As we speak, the new governor is not able to complete construction in Manga Stadium because there are so many audit issues around that project which means that residents of Nyamira will never see the fruits of having a new stadium being constructed. Six years down the line we have not finalized construction of our county referral hospital at the county headquarters. All this is because of poor management of projects where there is normally variation. I am not saying somebody has been found culpable, The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
