    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Ministry of Roads regarding the current state of Mombasa Road which is currently under construction. We all know that Mombasa Road is the life line of this country. The current state of the road is very pathetic. It is in a very bad shape. The road is poorly maintained. The diversion is not frequently maintained. This has caused most of the traffic and especially small vehicles that are not able to use it to take longer routes through Kangundo. The diversion alone is very long. It is roughly about 75 kilometres. The completed section is also not open to traffic use. Also, due to the poor state of the road, insecurity has increased. Traffic jams are the order of the day. Could the Minister clearly explain why the contractor has not maintained the diversion to acceptable standards? Secondly, why has the contractor not maintained the section of tarmac between Lukenya and Chumvi? Three, when is this contract likely to be completed? Finally, what action will the Minister take with regard to this particular contractor and the Ministry officials who have not ensured that the contract is followed to the letter?"
