"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, while appreciating the answer given by the Assistant Minister, I would like to voice my concern about the persistent habit by the Government, of only responding to issues after hon. Members have brought Questions to this House. Be that as it may, I am happy with the confirmation by the Assistant Minister that the construction works will not stall. However, when this road was last done, it lasted less than 24 months because of the 40-tonne lorries that used the road to ferry goods to Tanzania. Since the design of the said road has not changed, I wish to put it to the Assistant Minister that the 40-tonne lorries that use the road to transport goods to Tanzania will, again, spoil it within 24 months unless he re-designs it. Could he confirm that he will table before this House the design for this road, so that we can have engineers to confirm to him that he is being economical with the truth when he says that the road can sustain 40-tonne lorries?"
