"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have also travelled on the same road and support the position of Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. The same road has a connection to my county through Kitale. One can leave Tot and travel through Kapcherop, Kachibora, Kitale, Webuye, Kakamega, Kisumu and go whatever direction they want. Therefore, it is a very important road. But more fundamentally, very important roads across the country, including the Nyaru-Iten-Cheptongei-Kapenguria Road, were part of the roads said to be under the Annuity Programme. Could the Chair confirm what exactly happened to that Annuity Programme and when it will start? Everytime we go back to our constituents we tell them that several roads are under the Annuity Programme. When will these projects start? If the Chair is in conformity with us and unable to express and explain herself on the matter of the Annuity Programme, could the Committee also find a way of calling the Cabinet Secretary, the Principle Secretary and the directors of the relevant parastatals, so that we can have a sitting, like the one we had on matters health and security? We can then deal with that matter, once and for all, because we do not want to continue lying to our constituents. Elections are one-and-a-half years away and we have been telling them everytime that the roads will start."
