A song a female MP sung some time back with a prominent Kikuyu musician may end up causing her more pain than joy now that she is a mheshimiwa. Some male MPs have been scouting for the video of the song where the female MP featured as the star girl. Nobody knows yet what the male MPs intend to do with the video once they get hold of it. The song was sung long before the woman found her way to Parliament.

A company contracted to build houses for the Ministry of Housing and the National Housing Corporation has come under the spotlight after failing to complete several of the projects.

What with the insecurity in Garissa and other parts of the country, the IG and the National Police Service might need to look into this also.
