It will be paid using our taxes. However, I am not satisfied with the Minister’s answer on prioritizations, fair and equal distribution of the resources. I would have been much happier if the Minister gave me a breakdown of how much has been borrowed region by region. As it is, it is mixed up and for North Eastern Province, there is not a tangible project, for example, tarmac road, dams or irrigation projects which are basic needs. Having not been satisfied by the answer given by the Minister, I will request that you refer this Question to the relevant Parliamentary Committee or ask the Minister to do for me either county by county or region by region; the eight provinces. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."}
