"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Transport. If you look at newspapers today, you will see that from Friday to yesterday, we lost 83 people through road accidents. Many more people were left maimed. Between the years 2003 and 2005, this country reduced road accidents to about nil. I would like the Minister to tell us what happened such that we are now losing 20 people daily. As he responds to this request, I would like him to tell us whether vehicles on our roads are no longer fitted with safety belts and speed governors. What are traffic police officers doing on the roads, given that they are all over? Why are vehicles being overloaded? We need to act. Otherwise, we will lose even more lives than we did at the beginning of this year."
