    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. As I ask this question, I would like to thank the Cabinet Secretary because the contractor, who had deserted works at the Kieni–Karurumo Road in my constituency, is back. He has mobilised people and today I received some good news that he has embarked on the tarmacking of that road. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, please, receive my appreciation Cabinet Secretary, I would like to ask you this because you have said that it is the citizens’ responsibility to ensure road safety. I am a frequent traveller on the Embu–Meru- Nairobi Road and I have noted that the police officers manning the roads are very busy people. They are not busy manning the roads, but collecting money from road users, matatu drivers and boda boda operators. As you tell the citizens that it is their responsibility to ensure road safety by reporting to the police, I would wish that you also issue a statement to remove from the roads those police officers whose responsibility is to collect money from matatu drivers and harassing boda boda operators. What are you doing about that because that is partly the cause of the menace that we have on our roads in this country? Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
