    "content": "I also want to imagine that this project speaks to the Pan African ethos of uniting our countries more than ever before. Africa has the potential to rise. Indeed, Africa is the fastest growing continent in the world. Our economies are thriving, but for there to be a trickle-down effect, we must ensure proper execution of this project. If you look at the countries that surround us, you will clearly see that there is a huge potential for markets. As a country, Kenya has not utilised that opportunity to prove that it is the giant in this region. We have seen what South Africa has done in the southern region; what Nigeria has done to the neighboring countries and what Egypt was able to do before the collapse and going forward. Therefore, this project will help our people move freely. It will also ensure that our human capital that is developed because we are using a lot of money in the current Budget to the tune of Kshs335 billion in education can find ways and means of executing their skills and earn a living. The Ministerial Committees and other ways of engagement will help improve the economy of Kenya and, indeed, the economy of Africa. I support, hon. Speaker."
