    "content": "my colleagues together with the people of Kenya and the people of Rarieda, in sending my own condolences and those of the people of Rarieda, whom I have the privilege to represent; and those of my family, to the family and friends of late Senator Otieno Kajwang’. I am one of the last people to see hon. Senetor Kajwang’ alive when we had our ODM rally in Homa Bay last week. The loss is so tragic for me. It gives me the feeling of having gone to battle with him, and we left him in the field while we survived. May the almighty God rest his soul in eternal peace. The Motion by hon. Gakuya is good. However, this issue needs to be dealt with in a bigger context. This morning I was called to one of the television channels to express my condolences and discuss the passing on of my friend, hon. Kajwang’ having been one of the people who were last with him at a public meeting. Just ten kilometers took me two-and-a-half hours. It is a problem that affects almost everybody who lives in Nairobi. We really need to address this problem in a much bigger way. The economy of this country might soon grind to a halt unless the issues of traffic on our roads and the expansion of our roads are addressed as a matter of urgency."
