    "content": "Another biggest challenge is incomplete projects. Why would your predecessor find it hard to complete projects that you started, yet they know well those projects do not belong to you, but to the people of Kilifi or Nandi? As I speak, there are many stalled projects from 2013 to 2017, like the Governor’s Office in Kapsabet Town. Sen. Osotsi might have seen that white elephant because that is his route to Vihiga. When you look at the County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs), there are flagship projects that have been earmarked for improvement. Some of us who are passionate about the success of devolution feel bad when we pass money to go to the counties, but it is not reflected on the ground. I do not want to use any other county. In Nandi, we have a Cooperative Creamery at Kabiyet, which was supposed to be completed in 2021. No one, including the Governor even when he appeared before the County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC), has ever told us the total value of Kabiyet Dairies Company Limited. Another one is the Paediatric Wing at the Kapsabet County Referral Hospital. There is also expansion of Kabocha and Kapsengere dispensaries, but the amount is unknown. We also have expansion of Maraba among other 196 facilities I thank the President because he supported the expansion of Chepterwa Nyayo Hospital in Mosop Sub County. Up to now, no one the value of projects that have stalled. When you raise questions, the county government hires bloggers and other people to insult the Senator in funerals, baby-showers and other public fora. As a country, we must be honest and speak the truth. We should not be intimidated."
