    "content": "I do not have much to say. I thank the Committee because this Bill has been long overdue. As I conclude, there is 10,000 kilometres of road which the Jubilee Government promised put tarmac. We need to have a clear framework because it will be very unfortunate if these roads are being skewed to suit the Jubilee supporters’ zones. For example, in Trans Nzoia County, we have clear big roads that go towards Mt. Elgon. When it rains, it is totally impassable. As the allocation is being done, it should not be done in a way that allows more projects to be done in Jubilee supporters’ areas. We are calling upon His Excellency the President, to visit Trans Nzoia County to launch those particular roads. We have not seen much of these roads in Trans Nzoia County, which we represent. I was told that the Jubilee Government has launched roads in Kitui County. We want the distribution of these roads to be equal. It should be done irrespective of political affiliations because every Kenyan pays taxes and levies."
