    "content": "Chairman has said that this country will benefit from transportation using the pipeline as opposed to using trucks that have actually taken over all our national highways right from Mombasa to Nairobi through Uhuru Highway and my constituency, Kikuyu. We are experiencing these challenges with the opening up of the Southern Bypass in my own constituency in Kikuyu Town. It is actually a safety concern to my constituents that trucks carrying fuel are moving at very high speed along this new highway. They are negotiating dangerously to join the Southern Bypass at a place called Gitaru. I must call upon the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure to relook at the design of the Southern Bypass at the place where it joins Waiyaki Way or rather the A104 Highway. This is because we are now using this road with all these fuel tankers moving at very dangerous speeds while carrying dangerous products. It reminds us of the concerns that Kenyans have. We have seen fuel tankers overturning and in the process causing accidents and killing people. Remember the Muchongoi incident in Molo where a tanker exploded and killed almost 100 people."
