    "content": " Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. On the supplementary question on this particular section of road which touches Kajiado-Ilasit-Rombo-Taveta, I indicated that it is under the Road Annuity Programme that is being restructured to go under Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC). I also gave the numbers, that it cost us an average of Kshs65 million to build a rural road against under EPC against the Finance, Designed, Built, Maintain and Transfer Annuity Programme, which cost the Government Kshs125 million. A bit of time was taken in transferring this programme through the Attorney- General (AG) from the Annuity Programme to an EPC to avoid any legal challenges thereafter. I confirm that the project is 86 per cent complete and it only 15 kilometers left, I will pay attention and ensure that we accelerate and finish not just this project, but most of those projects that are near completion. This is so that we do not have pending works all over the country, and yet the projects are at the tail-end of completion."
