    "content": "I appeal to the Minister to look into it, because there is a lot of confusion right now as to who is going to be employed. I have said that we have no quarrel with the professionals but, definitely, when it comes to clerks, drivers and watchmen, we can provide them. I think we should be considered so that the money used on that road goes to our people that way. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to emphasise again on this region of Mt. Suswa to July 24, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2707 Keringet. Narok District is the first in the production of wheat in this country today. We have brought down Eldoret and it is now behind us. We are also the first, and probably the only ones who grow the best barley in this country. We think we have supported the Kenya Breweries Limited (KBL) so well. I want to say that during the colonial times, we used to have things like \"wheat roads\" and \"barley roads\". We do not have them now! The money was allocated in this Budget for wheat roads, and some of the wheat roads are inside this region that I am talking about, the Mt. Suswa to Keringet. But now these roads are just not there and if they are there, then it is just a few roads that are being done here and there. Let me talk about the Mau Narok-Narok Road. We grow wheat there. The Minister and I are there growing wheat and barley. It is not only us, but we represent hundreds and hundreds of other people who are growing wheat there. It is not favouritism, but I would like the Minister to know that we look upon him as one of us to improve, at least, the Mau Narok-Narok Road, so that it is passable."
