    "content": "CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF MAKUTANO-KIKIMA TOWER ROAD Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me also to make a request to the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Energy, Roads and Transportation. The Statement relates to a contract for the construction of Makutano-Kikima Tower Road D517. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will appreciate that this contract was awarded way before the construction of the Thika Superhighway, but as I speak, this road is still incomplete. I would like the Chairperson of the Committee to address the following:- (a) state whether he is aware that the contract for the construction was awarded to Victory Construction Company at a sum of Kshs1,895,094,559.84 and a contract period for 24 months, starting from 12th September, 2007 and lapsing on 13th September, 2009; (b) explain why six years later the work is incomplete, yet it should have been completed within two years; (c) state how much money has been paid so far for the work that has been completed and whether there has been an allocation this financial year; (d) explain why the contractor has left the site, yet the work is far from being completed; (e) state how long it would take for the portion that is not completed, in particular, Kikima Market and Kyambalasi-Makutano Junction. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to lay the request for the Statement on the Table."
