For me and the people who live along the highways, the facilities required to save lives are not adequate. They cannot be located on the basis of counties or constituencies. We need to look into a way of strategically locating these facilities so that we can reach many people. I personally support the earlier Motion.

Saying that we should locate these facilities within the counties would be denying the constituencies’ involvement in this matter. In Limuru, we have Tigoni Hospital, which caters for all the accidents that happen along the highway. From Tigoni, the next facilities are found in Naivasha and Nakuru.
