“I have never used a chopper, please I am begging to be on that trip."

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya was elated on Wednesday, August 2 after he was offered a helicopter ride to Busia County on Friday. 

Speaking at the National Assembly during a plenary session, Salasya asked Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi to invite him to a meeting that will be held in Busia this week. 

“Being a member of the Agriculture Committee, I am so proud of what he is doing. Mr. Cabinet Secretary, you should invite me to that meeting in Busia so that I can tell them that I have brought a message to you and you have acted on it,” Salasya asked CS Linturi.
