"content": "Just recently, we rejected a Bill on Nairobi Urban Transport Authority. Although issues were raised on its constitutionality in relation to the counties around Nairobi, we need somebody who will sit down and put up structures, regulations, timing and routing. It is only then that we will be able to control the fares. I congratulate my colleague for bringing this. Look at the NTSA Act and bring it to us here. If you can, we should have a Bill that will force these people to route vehicles, decide on where people come in, structures that will be used for vehicles and the timing for vehicles. It can be done. As I end, I went to Brasilia and I was surprised that the transport system that existed in this town in the 70s and 60s was almost copied structure by structure in Brasilia, and it is working well. Brasilia came into being when Sao Paulo became totally ungovernable in terms of transport and everything. So, the president ordered the construction of new headquarters and Brasilia came into being. When I looked at what they have there, that is what we had here. We have to go back. The NTSA has to sit down and do the work it is supposed to do. Give us guidelines and then the fares will fall in place. Thank you, I support."
