    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg your pardon. I want to make a correction; it is Vision 2030. If I said 2013, I meant 2030. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the objective is to transform Kenya into a newly industrialized middle income country, providing a high quality life to all citizens by 2030 in a clean and secure environment. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the road is also part of a critical international highway which is expected to unlock the economic potential of the southern region of the country as a whole, and also of other African countries by creating a linked network within the continent. For this reason, the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD) has, on a number of occasions urged the Government of Kenya to prioritize the tarmacking of the road. The petitioner further states that over the years, numerous appeals and requests have been made to the national Government by the residents of Kitui County, through different persons and bodies to have the road repaired. Some of these are outlined below. (a) Pleas by the residents of the county to the appointed and elected leaders, drawing their attention to the dilapidated condition of the road. (b) Undertakings made on at least three occasions by the immediate former President, hon. Mwai Kibaki, while on official visits to the county to the effect that the road will be tarmacked. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
