    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we all now see the effects of unfair distribution of roads money. Recently, in the current financial year Budget, my district got a paltry Kshs3 million, while others got as much as Kshs1 billion. If Gem Constituency was in those favoured districts, we would not be asking this Question. The Ministry has also changed the mode of procurement that the DWOs use. To put a line of culverts which costs only Kshs100,000, they cannot use LSOs and have to do tendering which takes six to seven months. Could the Assistant Minister enlighten this House on what happened to the feeder roads system which has been much talked about and which they have been pledging to revive? If we were using the system, we would be having graders and bulldozers and emergency equipment in our districts."
