• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: . In other sectors, we have been able to change. Education has helped us to change. We are now holding top positions; we are now running our own Government. We have ignored some of the sectors which caused this other top sector work. That is why you see the kind of things that are happening in this country. We saw what happened on our streets yesterday. It is because these people feel neglected. If they were able to understand that they are part of the country, they would appreciate the problems that we are going through. If it is the ... view

• 19 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Minister for the answer. The only thing is that this is one of the pathetic situations we find with these ESPs. I stand to be corrected; this project was awarded around April 2010 for a period of 24 weeks. This period was to end in around October. It is now more than double the period. I would like the Minister to tell this House what percentage of work had been done at the time of termination. What was the contract sum of the project before it was terminated? view

I would like the Minister to tell this House the measures she will put in place to make sure that when they re-tender, the work will be done properly and within the stipulated time. This is because ... view
