The National Assembly Committee on Regional Integration has been told that all roadblocks across the country will be removed by November this year.

This is according to the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Administration of National Government, Prof. Kithure Kindiki who  appeared before the Committee. 

In a session chaired by the Vice-Chairperson Hon. Yaqub Salah (Fafi)  the CS stated that the move is one of the approaches that his Ministry has taken to minimize disruptions caused by police roadblocks across the country and along the Northern Corridor.

The  National Assembly Committee on Environment, Forestry and Mining held a budget implementation oversight meeting with the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA).

During the meeting chaired by Hon. Getrude Mbeyu (Kilifi) NEMA Director General, Mr. Omamo Omamo asked the Committee to help the Authority get more budgetary allocation saying that lack of adequate funding to recruit staff has hindered its efficiency in upholding the plastic ban that has been in place since 2017.
