    "content": "Hon. Speaker, hon. Shidiye seems to be oblivious to one fact that a contract is binding. There was a contract that was signed between Vanoil and the Republic of Kenya, through the Ministry of Energy. According the contract, Vanoil was to deliver certain results within a specified period of time. The period was six years. They were given additional four years but were not able to deliver. That is what is important. There was a breach of contract by Vanoil. No amount of pleading will change the fact that Vanoil is in breach of contract. As for the rain, the hon. Member live in Kenya. He knows that in the northern Kenya region, including in my own Mwingi North Constituency, there was no rain. At least, there was no rain that would make it impossible for an oil rig to be moved from wherever it was to Modogashe. I will continue to host their camels and goats as long as they recognize the fact that guests are supposed to behave accordingly. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I feel that I have adequately responded to the Statement request. The issue is breach of contract. The Ministry of Energy will seek to advertise those blocks so that a competent company can enter into partnership with the Republic of Kenya with a view to finding oil in Modogashe, if any exists. Thank you."
