    "content": "investments, but to ensure that there is transparency and accountability. Otherwise, at face value, it looks good. This is because, for example, government “A” needs a certain project to be implemented; a person invests his or her money in that project, recoups his or her capital, makes profit and then moves on, and everybody is happy. Therefore, it is not just a question of doing so because in practical terms, it is not that simple. We, therefore, also need to learn. We want to look at what other jurisdictions have done regarding this and how has far it been successful. This is how we will ensure that we implement the Big Four Agenda and attract foreign direct investments. We recently got a convention facility for about Kshs519 billion. How can we then ensure we get value for our money if, for example, we do the 10,000 housing projects units that are supposed to be done in Kiambu and which will employ about 80,000 people? It is good to argue from one point and say, “well, yeah, when we finance these facilities, how long will we take to recover our investment or push the economy forward in terms of growth?”"
