    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have made no contradictions. Actually, the hon. Member has stated the truth. What I have done towards this end is to ensure that a design consultancy has been awarded to M/s Maltiscope Consulting Engineers. This was done on 27th August, this year at a cost of Kshs8.1 million and I expect the design to be over very soon. The construction of this bridge will cost about Kshs1.2 billion and I will only be able to allocate funds once the consultant has produced his report. I am also made to understand that the Constituencies Development Fund has allocated Kshs80 million towards this end and I appreciate the gesture by the Member of Parliament and his Committee. On the issue of loss of lives, the only information that I was able to gather was on an incident that happened on 8th September, where a Mitsubishi lorry which had 29 passengers had an accident in this place where one person died and six were still missing. Maybe the hon. Member has more information and I appreciate that he has shared it with this House."
