    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to just make one more point. The floods control in Nyando District has been going on. In the last financial year, there was money set aside for floods control, as we have it in this financial year. There was a spillway that was supposed to be done on Nyando River, which is within my constituency at a village called Obiayo. Nothing has been done so far. I appeal to the officers concerned! Whenever there are some little rains, Nyando River overflows its banks at that point. We have all the water in schools, whole villages are flooded and the road there is now spoilt beyond use just because Nyando River keeps on bursting its banks at that point. Why can the Ministry not use the money to make the spillway that had been designed? What is holding them? Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, due to your concern for the other hon. Members who want to contribute, I will stop at that point, although I had a lot to say."
