    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, in 1997, Pan Africa Builders was awarded a contract to construct 300 houses at the NSSF Kitisuru Housing Estate at the sum of Kshs1.9 billion. In 2005, they went to court. In 2010, they were awarded to be paid Kshs662 million. I am asking this Question not defending anybody or not on behalf of the lawyers. You will realize that in part “b” of my Question, I asked: Were the lawyers bypassed in this payment? In any work which is done by a lawyer, the whole cheque of Kshs662 million should have been paid to a lawyer, so that this lawyer could transmit it to the respective recipients. That is why in the first part of the Question I wanted to know the people who were paid. The answer to this Question said that in administering the payments it was agreed that the NSSF makes direct payments. I want to know from the Assistant Minister and I want him to table the agreements of the sub-contractors and the agreements which were arrived at. If you see the figures, one sub-contractor was paid Kshs20,045,738.90. The other one which is suspect, M/s Speedwings Limited were paid Kshs121 million. So, I want him to table sub-contracts if he has them."
