National Assembly Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi has asked Azimio la Umoja Members of Parliament to stop disturbing President Ruto at State House with endless visits.
Speaking on Thursday, June 29 during a session at the National Assembly, Wandayi asked the MPs to instead utilize the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NGCDF) to develop their constituencies.
“Sometimes I wonder about this idea of MPs developing a habit of disturbing State House for development. I don’t know where it comes from yet development you can count and touch is that which comes from the utilization of the NGCDF,” Wandayi stated.
He added “So stop disturbing State House with endless visits, MPs especially from my side of the political divide. Stop wasting your time queuing at State House looking for so-called development yet you have the opportunity to develop your constituency using NGCDF funds which are being managed by your own committees.”
