    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to appreciate Hon. Oscar Nabulindo, the Member for Matungu, for this Motion of Adjournment. Those of us who have travelled to foreign countries, particularly Europe, America and even Rwanda know that we do not see police officers on the roads, and accidents are minimal. I am just wondering why the Cabinet Secretary for Roads, Transport and Public Works has decided to recall the NTSA. We recall that time it was being removed from the roads, it was because of how it was acting thus leading to many accidents in the country. If the deployment of NTSA officers plus police officers back to the roads is an issue of corruption, then it is very obvious that corruption will now be on the increase. It will be at its highest because both of them are public servants; they are employees of the Government. So, if police officers are taking bribes, then NTSA personnel will continue taking bribes too. In any case, even previously, NTSA personnel were the most corrupt in the country. So, the issue should not be increasing inspection on the roads, but rather improving police oversight. The other issue that I feel causes accidents on our roads is poor road designs. I want to cite the case of the road from Kakamega to Kaburengu in Kakamega County, specifically the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
