    "content": " As the hon. Member may be aware, Kisumu Airport is still under construction of a new runway and terminal. We have provided a transition point as the new terminal and runway are being developed and a new infrastructure is being put into place. We are providing passenger comfort in terms of migrating from the old to the new terminal while awaiting the formal completion of the whole process. I have explained directly to the hon. Member and others and told them to bear with us as we try to finish up the construction of the airport. People were willing to test the new facilities. The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA), as a temporary measure, advertised for people to provide bus services for moving passengers from the planes to the new terminal which is a distance and the aprons have not been done. I would like to plead with the Member and, indeed, all the travellers to Kisumu, to just give us some time to finish all the works and then we will put in the infrastructure to accord the new status of the new airport. That is what I would state, even if I was to respond tomorrow. It is just a matter of time and we will then put the right infrastructure, means of transport and logistics in place to be in tune with a fully completed airport. Right now, work is still in progress."
