    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have no intention whatsoever of interrupting the flow of debate but I am just wondering that this is a very good Motion, but is it in order that we should be transacting our business in vain? I am asking this question because two years ago, we passed a Motion here which was making it obligatory for the Government to provide 20 kilometres of tarmac in each constituency. If that Motion had been implemented, by the end of this year, each constituency should be having an additional 60 kilometres of tarmac. That Motion, to the best of my knowledge has come and gone. Nothing has been done and I am seeing a possibility where even when we pass this Motion, we will be going through the same route. So, I am just asking myself whether these very good Motions which are intended to improve the lives of the people of Kenya---Would it look fair for justice to be seen to be done on this House when we pass such important Motions that have an impact on the lives of the people of Kenya but we just pass them in vain?"
