Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this chance. Public debt is a serious issue in this country. We get frustrated even talking about it. I know we moved the debt ceiling to Ksh10 trillion some time back, but the public debt is still...

Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to add my voice to this important issue. As everybody else has said, water is life, but it is sad that we are still talking about this many years after Independence. I support the idea of using PPPs...
