"content": "had concerns that this is a technical area that needs a road engineer to be the Director-General. I know that there are specific laws that we passed in the past that required we open up the position to other professions. It seems like since the advent of the 2010 Kenya Constitution, lawyers want to be everywhere. We need to leave some specific technical areas to engineers. The Director- General of Kenya Rural Road Authority (KeRRA), Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) and Kenya National Highway Authority (KENHA) sign. They cannot sign if they do not have knowledge in that particular area. So, this is an important amendment. On the earlier amendment that I wanted to contribute on, you cannot change the current CEOs. That was not part of the original Bill that underwent through public participation. That was unconstitutional. I support."
