    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I was here before you interrupted and then you can guide on whether I am discussing the conduct of the President. Why would the State spend millions of monies so that the President can go and commission a project? I will give an example. For the three times President William Ruto has been in Nyandarua, he commissioned the Ndunyu Njeru-Geta-Kapteni Road. In one instance, he commissioned at the Kapteni side and the other time, he did it at the Geta side. I hear he will be going there in a week or two to commission it again at the Geta side. Madam Temporary Speaker, how are we spending our money and how do we say that Kenya is broke and we are spending millions of Kenya for just commissioning projects? Why did we not see, even at one time, President Kibaki, one of the most celebrated Presidents of this Republic, on top of cars saying that nimetenga, nimesema nanimefanya ? Can the President just come quietly and commission a project that is complete? Why does he keep launching projects? Once he launches those projects and leaves, those contractors follow him. All the things he has promised in Nyandarua, he is coming to re- promise them again and yet, we are spending national money because he does not come alone. For the President to be in any a county, a lot of money is expended. I know right now, the President has new defenders."
