    "content": "because of tiredness. As you know human nature, there is so much that you can push your body to do. I think this requirement is important. On the issue of classification of roads, it is important for us to know the roads that are taken care of by the county governments. Sometimes there is a pull and push between county governments and the national Government. For example, initially, when Members of Parliament were allowed to construct roads, a Member would want to construct a specific road either through KURA and then the governor would also want to construct the same road and there would be misuse of resources. I feel when we have these various bodies coming in, then there needs to be a lot of consultation so that taxpayers’ money does not go to waste. On the issue of erection of structures near roads, other advertisements on our roads are distractive and can cause accidents. Therefore, we hope that the relevant bodies will do a good job. Kenyans are busy people and are known for creating many bodies. I was just going through the Bill and I saw that a new body is being created, namely, the Kenya National Secondary Roads Authority. I hope this is not going to be a source of more fights on who is going to be in charge of what."
