    "content": "to that standard, but why not? - If you ask the primary level children: What is a pothole? They do not know. If you look at other foreign countries where a majority of you, Senators, have traveled, you will realise that there is a lot that needs to be done in this country. The economic implications, the GDP development and all other physiologies cannot be achieved without good roads. I will be doing a disservice to the people of Machakos County who elected me if I do not mention that there are certain rural roads which are in a deplorable state. It is good that today we met the Governor of Machakos County when he appeared before the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC). I want to be on record that certain roads, especially in Mavoko, like the Muthwani, Airport, Githunguri Road is in a pathetic state. Something has to be done about it urgently. Kithimani and Kithyoko roads in Masinga are in a deplorable state. Kibauni road in Mwala Sub-county and Kalama-Makaveti road Kimutwa are in bad shape. The road between Kangundo and Mwala was left untarmacked when Paul Ngei - one of the Kapenguria six - was a Minister. There are other roads, for example, the road from Kabaa to Mbiuni, Kathama up to Tala; the Yatta-Katangi Road in Yatta as well as Muthetheni Road in Mwala. Similarly, where I come from, I travel on the Ikatini-Nduimoni-Mikuyo Road, which is a murram road in a very deplorable state. Therefore, Madam Temporary Speaker, I support this Motion by Sen. Kasanga that there is need to come up with proper policy guidelines that will help manage rural roads, if not all the roads in the Republic. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
