Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to finalise on the issue of governors and deputy governors in the counties.

What we are witnessing in some counties is an issue of people failing to perform duties of that office and trying to compete for one office. As I said earlier, due to the nature of our politics, as a country, sometimes it takes the effort of two to win an election. However, that does not mean that the two should occupy the same office.

that have been assigned to the deputy governors. They should perform the roles and responsibilities that have been given to them. Governors must ensure that deputy governors have their resources.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Isiolo Airport is not classified as an airport. Eldoret is an international airport receiving no less than five cargo planes. I expect you to be asking the Cabinet Secretary when he will be expanding the runway, so that we can export agricultural produce from that place.
