14 Dec 2011 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, this problem is not unique to Samburu East. You will find the same situation in the three districts; Thika East, Thika West and Ruiru District. This Government is creating districts that they cannot service. Could the Assistant Minister undertake to see that all districts that have been created have the votes to be able to be independent instead of relying on old districts? It is a problem and they have to deal with it.

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, hon. Ojode is taking this House for a ride. Last evening I spoke to hon. Lewis Nguyai who is the Assistant Minister in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government. He indicated to me that he would be coming this morning because he is aware of this Question being on the Order Paper this morning. Really, he was in Rwanda last week.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I thank the Minister for his answer that has done very little to my Question, I want to inform him through the Chair that I did write to the officers in his Ministry, asking about the damages caused to roads in Juja by this contractor. I may inform him by tabling the letter from the Ministry.

They are three roads. If I may name them they are: UR15, E495 and E435. The cost of repairs that are expected to bring them back to normal is indicated there. So, may I ask him to have a minute and look at it. Could he confirm to the House that these repairs will be done to bring the roads back to the state they were? We have used taxpayers’ money to repair these roads. The contractor has completely messed these roads. May he give an undertaking to the House when those roads will be repaired?

13 Dec 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, you have heard the last sentence by the Minister that they are under obligation to continue repairing those roads. If you read the document that I tabled, it simply says: “The following are the roads damaged by Shengli.” Could the Minister give an undertaking to this House that he will order Shengli or whoever it is to continuously repair these roads? We do not have logging in Juja. We have residents using these roads and they are suffering. Can he undertake to do that?
