    "content": "I rise to support the Budget and Appropriations Committee Report on the proposed Budget Estimates for the coming financial year. I have gone through the Report and wish to state that I support these estimates for purposes of the furtherance of the Big Four Agenda, which is what our Government is now delving into. It seeks to ensure that we realise that agenda in the four sectors that have been set out. Most important is the infrastructure sector. It is because most of the roads, especially in the rural areas, are in pathetic state. I do make this argument bearing in mind my constituency, Tharaka. Time and again, I have been to the Ministry of Roads seeking funds to simply murram most of the roads, but I have not been successful. I have seen an allocation regarding roads. I have seen many counties getting money to murram their roads if not to have tarmac on them. I would, therefore, be urging that ministry that when I visit, I need consideration."
