"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I congratulate the Minister and his team for the good work, there are one or two observations that I want to make on this particular Ministry. I will start by stating that the importance of the Ministry of Roads cannot be over-emphasized. This is a very important Ministry and we know that many other sectors that are driving this economy rely on this particular Ministry. Agriculture, which is the backbone of this economy, depends on these roads. The farmers will need good roads to get their farm inputs to their farms. They will also need good roads to get their outputs or harvests to the market. For the tourism that we have been talking about to flourish, we need good roads. We are losing many tourists because of the bad roads in our parks and the roads leading to tourist attraction areas. Therefore, for the country to be able to realize the dream of Vision 2030, we must ensure that we have a proper road network system in this country. That is why we are saying that this is a Ministry that must be allocated enough funds to ensure that they give us good roads for us to achieve what I have stated."
