    "content": "That was Nakuru for you. At that time, Nakuru was a very beautiful and clean town. We used to be taught in primary school that Nakuru had the cleanest railway station in East Africa, those days when we were learning geography and the history of the railways. Nakuru County also has a history of big farmers. We used to be told the story of Delamere mounting his horse in Naivasha and riding it until it collapsed of thirst next to Lake in Nakuru where he set the boundary of his land. That is Nakuru for you. Those days, there was a gentle man called Zakayo Oyugi who was the Provincial Commissioner of Rift Valley; he was the alpha and omega of rogue power in the management of public affairs. Nakuru developed a reputation of being a very good place on one extreme and being a very bad place on another extreme. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is also the town where a Member of Parliament, the Late Mark Mwithaga, was charged, prosecuted, jailed and lost his seat without a complainant. My brother from West Pokot remembers all this because even his career was truncated in Nakuru at one time."
