    "content": "May we pass this law, colleagues with a warning to governors and county governments that we are going to be hawk-eyed. We will monitor and watch very keenly how the resources for the roads that we are devolving will be used. I also hope that the enforcement of this law will help answer concerns in other sectors like road safety. Whereas road safety is not entirely the business of this particular law, the manner in which we are using our roads puts citizens at serious risk. This also has something to do with the way we construct our roads. We have roads in this country that are very narrow that having two cars passing by each other is a risk in itself. In some countries, the way roads are constructed and managed is far much better. We can learn from such experiences. You do not have to go to the United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom (UK) or China. You can take a ride to Kigali in Rwanda. Tiny Rwanda has raised the bar in very many aspects. Among the aspects that this country has a lot to learn from Rwanda is the manner in which they are constructing their roads and how they are managing and using them. The state of environmental management is good. You go to Kigali and you actually feel you are off the continent of Africa because of how that small beautiful city that I love very much looks like. Of course, there are many other beautiful things in Rwanda other than the roads."
