    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank the honourable lady for that comment. It is true that we went to Mbita Constituency and among the things that we committed ourselves to deal with, was the bridge that connects the mainland to Rusinga Island to allow the bridging of fish. That bridge, as far as I know, is either under construction or the plans are fairly advanced. That I can confirm. Secondly, we went to Tom Mboya place and we committed to support the renovation of that very historic site with Kshs20 million. The only mistake we made was not using the right protocol. We said that this money would be spent through the NG- CDF and it was very difficult to make the connection. What we have done in the coming year is that we have more than doubled the allocation. We have set aside Kshs50 million to renovate Tom Mboya memorial site. We propose to give that money in the 2017/2018 Financial Year. The Appropriation Act is now law and that money has been given to the ministry. The only thing we have not been able to deal with is the issue of the boat. But then you cannot also do everything. I can confirm that the bridge connecting Mbita and Rusinga has been allocated money. We have also allocated Kshs50 million to the Tom Mboya memorial site.
