    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, actually, the immediate cause of the shortage, as I have said, is due to a very sharp demand for diesel for generating electricity in Uganda as a result of unforseen and unexpected drought in that country. We have done sufficient planning. The pipeline expansion has been on-going for several years and, as we speak now, the implementation is going on. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it not true even to imagine that, that shortfall is being stage-managed because it is real! We do not need to stage-manage anything because the capacity enhancement of the pipeline for both Line I and Line II was planned and is being implemented with or without the current shortfall. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we also cannot avoid transport by road for, at least, the next one year because the upgrading of the pipeline from Mombasa to Eldoret will not be completed until that period. In the meantime, we have to cope with the tankers on our roads. Thank you."
