Narok women Rep. Hon Soipan joins other leaders in finding a solutions on wrangles between SGR and Narok East residents.

Narok able women representative joined other elected leaders at Suswa to discuss and find lasting solutions to a myriad of issues between the residents of Suswa in Narok East and the China Road and Bridge Corporation(CRBC).

The SGR project is a flagship of the Jubilee Government expected and indeed intended to raise the livelihood standards of all Kenyans and even more, those Kenyans whose lands the SGR will cut through...it is therefore outrageous and unexpected for CRBC to want to confine these local communities in Narok to the back burner in matters of employment,tendering and coordination of the project.

The countless benefits of the SGR must be maximized and shared equitably within local communities and the relationship between thecommunity and CRBC should be one of collaboration,trust, and respect to avoid effects of adversarial confrontations like the recent loss of life of a young man in a demonstration: the Police and administration should be facilitators and not an impediment.

It is incumbent on all actors to work together as a team and embrace the SGR project which will undoubtedly be of immense value to the people of Narok County once completed.
