• 24 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: So, I think it is healthy that we, hon. Members of the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC), can go back and think through that list again. For the hon. Member who wants to get us disbanded, I want to assure him that he cannot get a better team than us.

Member to know that this project was designed to cover 180 kilometres. The resources that we put out for this project was Kshs64,190,000, which only covered 33 kilometres.

I have not visited this project personally and so I would like to believe that what the engineers told me is what the actual position is. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said, Kshs62,190,000 has already been spent. This has been spent on 33 kilometres. To cover the remaining part, we need more money. I have said here that I have not personally visited this project. This project started way back before the hon. Member was born. view
