    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also thank Sen. (Dr.) Lelegwe Ltumbesi for this Statement. It is a very important Statement. I am in the Senate Standing Committee on Roads and Transport. What I have seen in the Committee is something that I do not even know what to say. Today, if you invest in any business, you need to complete the business as quickly as possible. This LAPSSET project is supposed to help this country both economically and also manpower. What I do not understand is how a country can invest billions of shillings and the project is not completed. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have a project that is supposed to support a country that has a population of over 100 million people. If this project was complete, we would have had vehicles coming all the way from Ethiopia to Lamu. We are supposed to get export material from Ethiopia passing through Lamu into many other countries. Since this project is not complete, we are losing a lot of money. I agree with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale that we should have a joint Committee for both Houses in order to see how far we can go with these things. This is a serious matter that needs to be pursued to the latter."
