    "content": "Thank you hon. Speaker for giving me this chance to speak to this Motion. History tends to repeat itself. When the original railway line was being constructed, we had the man-eaters of Tsavo. I want to equate the forces that were opposing this railway line to the man-eaters of Tsavo. As my colleagues have said, this is going to spur growth in the country. It is going to reduce the wear and tear that we expose our roads to when goods, cargo and containers are transported through the main road. The issues that were bedeviling this process as it commenced related to procurement. I would wish to urge the Government officers, especially those that are involved on a day to day procurement issues, that they must meet the standards that are set out by the Public Procurement Act. In as much as I know, the Act has issues, which we as Members of Parliament are trying to unravel. So, I stand to support this Motion and believe is going to meet one of our pillars for Vision 2030. I support."
