    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. If you heard the response given earlier on by the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing, he said that when they interviewed members, two Subas were interviewed and they did not succeed because they failed the interview. The reason is that, if you look at the state of the roads, they probably reach the interview when they are very dirty, tired or look like they have come from another country which is not Kenya. What I would want to ask, because that is a road that also comes from Mbita, which is adjacent to hon. Mbadi’s constituency. Protect me from hon. Amina who is saying Subas are extinct. Hon. Mbadi and I have proved that we are Subas. They are from Mbita to Gwassi. My concern is that the Chairman has indicated that they are going to prioritize those roads. Could the Chairman assure us that, that road is not going to be granted to the Chinese because Mbita Bridge, which was granted to the Chinese, they have already abandoned it? There is no information about what is going on and whether there is any budgetary allocation. If we still award the Chinese that cannot complete work in the same neighborhood, how is it going to help us? I am hoping that the Chairman can also respond because that road from Mbita to hon. Mbadi’s constituency is a continuation of the road from Homa Bay to Mbita. Even as we are allocating money to those roads, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
