I was saying that this is not the first time for me to ask this particular Question. Last year, I brought the same Question to this House and the Cabinet Secretary came, explained and gave a promise which he never fulfilled. If I can remember correctly, in 2016, the former Member for Chuka/Igambang’ombe, Hon. Muthomi Njuki, who is now the Governor for Tharaka-Nithi County, brought the same Question to this House. In 2018, Hon. Patrick Munene, the Member for Chuka/Igambang’ombe, asked the same Question. The Ministry has been giving us promises that have not been fulfilled. So, I request the Committee to tell the Ministry that the people of Tharaka-Nithi County have been waiting for those particular roads to be constructed, but it has not been possible all those years. So, we need a promise that can be fulfilled – that, the contracts for our roads are going to be awarded on time. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."}
