• 28 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that Tetu Constituency lacks sufficient sources of clean water for domestic consumption. About 50 per cent of the constituency is currently adequately served with clean water but, the other 50 per cent is served through rationing.

We are making sure that it is revamped to the extent that it can be a serious corporation to tackle those problems once and for all. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are also making sure that we get the right contractors so that, whoever is given work to construct dams, he or she does it effectively.

• 28 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will accept that those are serious allegations.

That way, we can investigate. He can still request us, because he does not have to come to the Floor of the House, so that we can investigate. But, in the meantime, whichever way, we are trying to sink boreholes and construct dams to make sure that we have water for Kenyans. view
