I was in the 10th Parliament when that governor was the Cabinet Secretary for Water and Irrigation and you know what happened to the National Water Corporation.

Every day when you go near the Table Office, there is a huge crowd of governors being escorted. The moment they enter there, they face one Senator Wamatangi. We want to ask Sen. Wamatangi whether he is the father of that Committee. I am told there is somewhere people meet The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
