    "content": "Hon. Speaker, for the last three years, the Government has not injected any money for the maintenance of either Moi International Sports Centre or Nyayo Stadium. Therefore, SSMB has to find a way of raising funds to maintain these stadia. It is not right to say that Safaricom has done nothing. It was not Safaricom’s own decision to write to the Ministry or SSMB that they wanted to do something at the stadium. It is the SSMB which advertised in the newspapers for interested parties to apply and whoever won would be given the contract to maintain the stadium. I do not see where Safaricom has failed in its obligation because this is a request which came from SSMB. Hon. Speaker, of the remaining, I have indicated very clearly when I was reading the Statement that the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani, has various facilities bearing different names. It has various facilities including a hotel. It has a swimming complex, gymnasium and football stadium. These are the most used facilities and SSMB could not raise funds even to maintain them. That is why they had to put it on newspapers."
