I join my colleagues in welcoming our former Senator to the Senate. He is doing very well in the roads sector. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to ask him a question since he has talked of pending roads. How about the audit of roads that were done? There is a problem of not putting culverts on our roads. One of them is his pet project, the Iten-Nyaru Road, which he fought for over time. It is not done. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I say this because I am his neighbour at home and I use that road. The sad part is that I constructed a culvert for myself to go home and everybody is asking why I was the only one given a culvert. There are no culverts in the whole stretch of 36 kilometres. I also want to hear from the CS, on what happened to the compensation of people who lived along those roads? In Uasin Gishu, for example, we have a road that started from Kaptagat and goes all the way to connect to Elgeyo/Marakwet, but people have not been fully compensated. I know the National Land Commission (NLC) is supposed to be doing so---"}
