• 2 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister has said that he is not aware, but the fact is that this is happening up to now. As I speak, we have trailers stretching right from the border to almost six kilometres inside Kenya. The Minister has said that he has set aside funds for the construction of the parks. When will the construction of these parks start and when will they be completed? view
