• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: (a) I am not aware that the sewerage system in Majengo Estate in Thika has been blocked for over three years. The alleged blocked system in Majengo Estate is actually not sewage, but leachate water from Majengo flowing into the open drainage system. This was the municipal council’s original design since the inception of the estate to allow leachet water to flow to open drainage drains. Initially, the water was sipping into the ground but due to the development on the lower part of Majengo, the leachate water can now be noticed. view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: (b) The council has issued notices to plot owners to pay the relevant fees and charges to the Thika Water and Sewerage Company so that they can be connected to the sewerage system. The council will enforce the same using the Public Health Department to ensure that the plot owners connect to the sewerage system, failure to which the council will use legal means to force the plot owners to arrest the situation. view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have tremendous respect for the hon. Member for Juja. As I said, a sewer is an open system and leachate is flowing. But, nonetheless, I will visit the area and see first-hand, after I view the pictures, and see what appropriate action to take. view
