    "content": " Those criticising the President want to hamper his thinking and creative imagination to serve the people of Kenya. That is what fairness requires. I remember you were our Deputy Speaker during the time of the Grand Coalition Government. We had a visit to the late President one morning, to whom we took a very serious wish list. The Isiolo-Marsabit-Moyale Road has now been tarmacked out of that wish list. It is my prayer, yours, and the prayer of all of us that the roads from Garissa-Modogashe-Wajir- Elwak-Mandera, Garissa-Dadaab-Liboi-Kismayo, and Wajir-Moyale-Addis Ababa will be a reality under the Budget right now. That is what the President has promised. These are the realities that we expect. When looking at this Budget, get ready that will be my first entry point so that whatever has been promised is turned into a reality. Finally, I know the management of the national resource pocket is a very difficult and tasking job. Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee should not worry when they are criticised. That informs the strength over the weaknesses we have gone through. It is not a challenge. We are criticised because we are politicians. Taking definitions and expectations into account, I assure you we will be there to critically look at this Budget and ensure that there is value for every region and support for every part of the Republic of Kenya. I support."
