I know that some places have benefitted from road construction, but others have not. Even the road the Member for Igambang’ombe has mentioned was initiated by President Kibaki. It is not a new project. We have challenges in our areas like in Bungoma where there is no drainage system in town. I wonder whether engineers are not able to tell the direction water flows. It is a big issue. Small businessmen like hawkers in town cannot do their businesses along the road that goes to Hon. Washiali’s place along Mumias Road. There is uncontrolled water. I can talk about many other issues, but the Government must take the issues that affect the wananchi seriously so that we can move forward."}
