We will even criticise the Government when they make any mistake, or are selective in sharing development without fear. I want to thank those who came with the idea of social media. Members of Parliament are doing a lot of work, but it is only that some of them are not on social media. That is why some Kenyans cannot understand the work that they are doing in their constituencies. I am happy that currently, Kenyans have now noted the importance of the Funds. If you listened to the presentation by Hon. Chepkong’a, he has said that there is no Member of Parliament who walks with those cheque books. Then you realise that what they are saying about our deliberations on micro-managing the NG-CDF becomes a double standard.

Why is it that NG- CDF with only Ksh38 billion can be felt across the country? You can see a lot of work that, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
