"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Water supply management across Kenya, as a devolved function, is a challenge. It is lacking in every county. People are suffering and do not have access to clean and safe drinking water. Counties seem not to understand what to do in that sector. We would love all Governors to take this issue seriously - not just in Mavoko, but also in Busia, where I come from. Women travel miles to look for water, which leads to other issues, like girls being raped in forests. Water is a devolved function and we must task the Governors to do something about it. For instance, they must ensure that piped water reaches some homes every month. At the end of five years, many homes will have access to piped and safe drinking water. Thank you."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to comment, especially on the matter raised by Hon. Kamene. I fully feel her. When a project takes 10 years and people have not benefited, it stops being useful, even though we allocate budgets every financial year. In the corridors of power, the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation has told us that he believes the most useful projects in this country are small ones that are implemented and completed within one or two years, giving people access to water. The budget for water is high, and sometimes the Committee's hands are tied. I am not in that Committee, but I am a friend of the Chairperson. He has informed me that their hands are tied. They have to handle the Thwake Dam, which involves billions of shillings. There is another project in Tana River. What is it called?"

"content": " Yes, Galana Kulalu. The Committee funds several projects in one year, including dams. The other day, he gave two dams to my constituency, and people now have access to water. These are small projects worth Ksh20 million, Ksh30 million, up to Ksh100 million. However, the Thwake Dam, which is expected to serve Machakos, Makueni and Kitui counties, requires billions of shillings. Kitui South Constituency is 150 kilometres from that dam. Billions of shillings go to huge projects, and the Committee does not have much control. I am sorry to say that we keep financing these projects for the benefit of others."
