Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I brought a Petition last week on the statutory deductions of staff of the Nol-Turesh Water and Sanitation Company which had not been submitted for nine months. This has brought a lot of suffering to ... view

In the statement the Committee should:- (1) Explain why there are no emergency bridges at Ilkeekelemendugi River in Kitengela and Ilbisil River along Namanga Road, yet this is an international road.
