    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I beg to present the following Petition. I, the undersigned, on behalf of concerned residents of Buuri Sub-county, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, the Meru-Nanyuki Road is a major road that not only traverses and connects various counties within the Eastern and Northern Kenya regions, but links Kenya to the neighbouring countries to the north; THAT, among the areas the road traverses is the populous Mboroga-Kiborione section with homes and churches like Mboroga Methodist Church, Independent Church, Evangelical Church, Kiborione Methodist Church and schools such as Kiborione Primary School and Kibubuine Academy; THAT, due to the high human traffic arising from concentration of human activities around the said region, there has been increased vulnerability of pedestrians to accidents caused by over-speeding drivers; THAT, the same road has experienced numerous accidents, especially at the section between Mboroga and Kiborione, where many lives have been lost as a result of careless and over-speeding drivers; THAT, multiple reports made to the relevant authorities to erect speed bumps on the road and traffic police to enforce compliance to speed limits so as to minimise accidents have not been acted upon; THAT, the matter in respect of which this Petition is made is not pending before any court of law or constitutional body. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
