"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I want to ask Members, given the serious issues that have been raised in the Petition, to come before the Committee so that we can all own this document and enrich it. Towards the end of last year up to the beginning of this year, we have had a lot of accidents. You know what we did with the Ministry, Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA) and Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) that now we have this lull. I received much co-operation from Members and also the Executive. Therefore, we cannot say that we will rid our roads of accidents in one day, or one person will do it. All of us should do it. I want to assure the petitioner that the Petition has reached my Committee. Let us take this opportunity to bring on board more views to enrich the Petition before us because sometimes when that window of public participation comes in, Members might not use it properly. Later, when we bring the report to the House, it may lack their input. Therefore, I encourage Members that, once a petition is before a Committee, please, let us come together. This is not property of the Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing rather it is also for you Members. This is your Committee. I am just working for you. So, welcome to the Committee. Let us enrich it and also do our best. I thank you, Hon. Speaker"
