    "content": "realised. I have heard a few Members talking about infrastructure development that in the last four years, this country has made great strides in infrastructure development. In the whole of Busia County, we have not seen even a quarter kilometer of a tarmac road since the Government took power in 2013. I wonder where these roads are, yet they are supposed to be done in every constituency every year. Not even one to date. If there is one to begin, probably it is another campaign gimmick to lure the people of Busia to vote wrongfully. The state of security in this country has already been mentioned. It is too bad. We do not want to hear people chest thumping when Kenyans in the countryside are dying when they pay taxes to have their border secured. Why should they then kill each other within our borders when the country has security apparatus which should operate? That is a failure by the Government of the day. That is something that should be taken as a priority and it would be very bad to bury our heads in the sand like the proverbial ostrich. This is particularly from our friends on the other side of the House when your own people are the ones being killed and State security agents are sleeping on their jobs. The President and the Government must wake up and address this once and for all."
