"content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, I thank Sen. Cherargei for that very important Statement. I also thank God that he got well and wish him full recovery from that horrible accident. As he has acknowledged, both sides of the House wished him well and prayed for him. The issue of the bypass in Kapseret area was already brought to this House. I thank the Chairperson of the Committee, Sen. Wamatangi, for even visiting the place, but the issues are still pending. At that time, it was issues of compensation. More importantly is the highway between Kapsabet-Eldoret-Iten. That highway has been mooted for a long period time. As you know, that is a very busy highway. The traffic from Iten to Eldoret and Kapsabet to Eldoret is high. If you are driving to Kapsabet, for example, with all those corners and valleys, the road is too narrow. This is a priority road. The bypass in Nakuru and the overpasses have been done to ease the issue of traffic in Nakuru Town. Considering that Eldoret is a highway that takes people all the way to Malaba and you have this other route to Kisumu, I think it is important that the new Director-General (DG) of Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHa) - I am aware and it was announced that they have a new DG, Mr. Kinoti - should take this project to be a very important priority for that region. Madam Deputy Speaker, I am writing what I am saying---."
