• 15 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have been very clear. These projects were started sometime back. But the hon.

• 15 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is what we call affirmative action.

We will send our auditors if there is any issue pending. view

• 15 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the issue of the bridge, when Mr. Raila was Minister for Roads and Public Works, they allocated it Kshs15 million. When he left, they increased that amount to Kshs25 million. That bridge is being designed now! view
