    "content": " My response on page 5 recognises that security is one of the reasons for the delay. At the time we were doing this, there were serious issues cropping up. It was just around the time Cuban doctors were abducted in Mandera Town. It posed insecurity challenges and we could not have the project up and running. It then stalled until November 2020. I want to assure you that this project is very key to the Ministry. We have invested money in it and we will not stop until it is completed. I also rely on funding from this House and we are working to ensure that there is sufficient funding to complete the project. Overall, it is at 73 per cent completion. Considering the worth of this project, which is about Ksh2.3 billion, we have done well despite those challenges. I, therefore, want to assure you that it will be completed. I agree with you that this project is serving a very key area in terms of water scarcity. We need to have it completed. It is one of our solutions to the problem of water in Mandera County."
