    "content": "Members of the Parliament are the patrons of the KeRRA roads that are being done in our constituencies. Just ask yourself why it costs Kshs5 million to upgrade a 200 metre road from murram to cabro. When you do it yourself, because I have done the numbers, it costs you Kshs1.5 million. When you ask the experts, they tell you they are using the Japanese costing of doing roads. Where on earth does that happen? We are not in Japan! We are in Kenya and we have to do things the Kenyan way. With the Kshs5 million that they allocate for a 200 metre road, we can get 400 metres of roads. But, at the end of the day, there is that serious collusion between the officials, engineers and contractors. At the end of the day, we end up with very shoddy work. They do very small sections of roads and there is no value for money."
