    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am very pleased to comment on this Petition. I thank all the Members who have supported it. The Kakamega Airstrip is in Shinyalu Constituency. The neighbourhood of Kakamega Airstrip gave out their land for the expansion of that airstrip in 2010. Some of them have not settled. There are others who cannot carry out any development because they foresee the expansion that was announced to them. They cannot carry out any infrastructural development that is sustainable. The rehabilitation of that airstrip will enable those people to decide whether they are affected or not. You can imagine about 2,000 families cannot build a permanent house because they are always waiting for the airstrip to be expanded into their homes. The faster this is done, the better for them so that they can undertake their developments. Patients always have to be transported by road to Kisumu, Eldoret or Kitale to be transported by the Flying Doctors. I would like to support the need for expeditious expansion and reopening of this airstrip so that services can be provided to the residents. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
