"content": "The allocation to the Ministry of Water and Irrigation for dam construction went up but I would like to see more transparency in the allocation of money for water, and it should be constituency-based. At the moment, the Ministry disburses money through the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation (NWC&PC), which channels the money through the various water services boards. However, this money does not reach the intended areas on time. It is delayed. The money disappears somewhere along the way. You hear that certain areas have got Kshs200 million for dam construction. The money does not reach other places and yet water is vital. We need to develop water resources. We need to build more dams and sink boreholes. We need to build more water pans and harness flood water, but the money does not reach the intended places. People request for money, but it does not reach them. So, I would like to see more transparency in the water sector."
