• 9 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is very worrying when you witness this kind of incoherence in Government planning and project implementation.

Musikari Kombo as the Minister for Local Government.

Could the Assistant Minister look 40 million Kenyans in the eye right now and give a guarantee and an assurance that if, at all, the Kenyan taxpayer loses ... view
