    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing regarding the construction of Ngong Road, a crucial road for residents of Nairobi and neighbouring counties. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Clarify whether the contractor awarded the tender for construction of Ngong Road has completed construction works on the road as per the terms of the contract, including restoration of the damaged sections. (2) Inform the Senate of the scope of works undertaken by the contractor, stating who is responsible for works on the unfinished sections of the road and measures put in place to ensure that the road which has been under construction since 2017 is completed to the required standards. (3) Spell out measures to be undertaken by the contractor to address concerns about the incomplete sections of Ngong Road that lack clear markings, lanes that end abruptly and have insufficient lighting, all of which pose safety hazards. I thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
