    "content": "I now remember that there were supplementary questions. As I said, most of them are almost generic. However, there is the most important question that has been asked by Hon. Jayne Kihara on the dualling of the Rironi-Mau Summit Road. I believe we will have time to discuss the dualling of Mombasa-Nairobi Road and Rironi-Mau Summit Road when I have another opportunity to come before this House. I want to say something which is important. We are working around the clock to discuss with the prospective PPP investor on the Rironi - Mau Summit Road. Our bone of contention at the moment – and that is why the construction of the road has not begun - is the transfer of traffic risk from the investor to the Government of Kenya. It means that we carry the burden, if we do not meet the volume of vehicles using the road to the level that the investor requires, to repay the loans. The Government of Kenya will have to repay for a long period of time. We calculated the amount. It can even mean that we pay between Ksh15 billion to Ksh30 billion consistently for the next 20 years up to 2050. That will be another additional burden to our already burdened society. We asked the investor to think through a process where this burden will not be borne by the Government of Kenya."
