    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this chance. I would like to appreciate what the Prime Minister is telling us this afternoon. But, at the same time, I would like to say that we know the Government is up to a lot of good by constructing modern roads for Kenyans. I do not know whether any Government official has managed to travel along Thika Road to see what the people with businesses on that road are going through. In fact, the business people along that road are counting losses by the day because of dust. There are so many accidents on that road, especially at night. I believe there are rules that contractors are given by the Government when they win the contracts. There are rules about diversions. When you drive along that road during the day, say between 7.00 a.m. and about 2.00 p.m. you will find a diversion. By the time you go back in the afternoon, you will find the same diversion is not on the spot where you left it. It is on a completely different position. Then, there are those boulders they are putting on the road. So, when you travel on that road, you will find that there are so many accidents at night and people have lost their lives. I think that is something that the Government can look into."
