    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I want to thank Sen. Mwakulegwa for giving me this response in advance so that I can read it. I have gone through it and part of it, concerns the Senator for Kiambu who is not here. The portion that concerns Makueni County is part (b). One of the concerns that we had was that the project had taken too long. Under part (d), there is an extension given of 68.3 weeks to this contractor. He has constructed 24.6 kilometres for seven years which translates to four kilometres per year. Although there appears to be some payment made, there are two details missing. Why has he not been paid the full sum? Secondly, whether the Chairperson of this Committee is aware the constructor is not on site because he has not been paid. Thirdly, since they have agreed that he will only do 29 kilometers and there are five kilometers left, whether or not, we will have to wait for four years for him to complete the remainder of 4.4 kilometres. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the people of Mbooni want to rest assured about the completion of this road which was launched by His Excellency the former President Mwai Kibaki who promised to ensure that it would be completed before he left office."
