    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. This is also a very serious issue. Roads in this country nowadays lack signs. Some roads have many corners and bends. I do not know how Kenyan roads outside the major cities are done. Newly constructed roads follow a funny route like a camel path. Instead of creating a straight path, you go to the right, then to the left then back to the right. I do not know what is wrong with engineers in this country. Apart from that, road signage on recently tarmacked roads in this country disappear quite fast. Instead of harassing matatu operators and other road users, the police should look into these issues and deal with these people who vandalise road signage. Some of contractors do not even do the job they are supposed to do. I do not know what is wrong with the Kenya Roads Board (KRB), Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA). They have officers all over the country, but nobody gets arrested for vandalism of road signage. It is very dangerous when you are driving fast, then you suddenly realise there is a corner and yet there is no signage anywhere. Some areas have too many bumps while others have wildlife or even domestic animals in the case of nomadic areas, but there are no bumps. These are issues which should be looked into by the relevant Committee."
