"content": "While speaking about the effects of this flooding in this country, you begin to ask yourself, what is it with our road engineers? Why is it that we do not seem to get many things right? Somebody would have thought that because the expressway is a modern piece of infrastructure, designed and implemented just the other day, somebody would have put thoughts into a drainage system that works. There is nothing as scary as driving upstairs, as it were, on the rooftop, on a flooded road. Madam Temporary Speaker, as we deal with this issue of flooding, there is a reason that we must begin to ask questions irrespective of who brought this project to us and the government that implemented what project. At the end of the day, this is public utility constructed, implemented and run using public funds. We were all here in December/November last year when county governments were falling over each other to allocate billions of shillings to disaster management fearing that El Nino was coming and things were going to go wrong. The question that we should be asking these counties--- I am seeing the clock doing funny things."
