<br clear="none">If this is what will keep being done I fully understand why Dr. Ndemo's directive when he was permanent secretary to the various councils to weave wayleave charges for those companies laying fibre was ignored.<br clear="none">

be used to repair problems that they have caused, more like the case of the American government and the cigarette manufacturers.<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><img alt="" height="384" width="514"> <img alt="" height="388" width="520"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">
