"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to add my voice in supporting this Petition by my brother, Hon. Shinali because I know we will have an opportunity to contribute at the Committee level. Since the skirmishes we had in 2007/2008 elections, air transport has become a very popular option. That is when some of us realized that air travel can be an option. That is why many times those of us coming from western Kenya and Nyanza have been using the Kisumu Airport. It has become very popular such that today being Wednesday, if you ask for a space on any flight coming from Kisumu on Sunday, you will not get one. This Petition goes along way so that we can improve the airport of Kakamega and provide an opportunity for other people coming from the upper western to use it as an exit point. This airport was closed for repairs otherwise Fly540 was operating from there. There must be an issue with the contractor who is repairing this airport. I am asking the KAA to make a follow-up so that it can function properly so that people from the upper side of western can use air transport. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
