    "content": "On Sunday afternoon at 3.30 p.m., I was driving from Kilifi to Mtwapa. On reaching Vipingo Ridge, I witnessed a grisly road accident which could have been avoided. Some goats were crossing the road from one side of the ridge to the other side of Vipingo Estate, a matatu that was carrying students was coming from Mtwapa to Kilifi and another matatu was coming from Kilifi to Mtwapa. The one coming from Mtwapa tried to avoid hitting the goats. By the way, the matatu was speeding because I could see it. In the process of avoiding to hit the goats, the driver crashed head-on with the matatu that was coming from Kilifi. I was personally involved in the rescue mission. On the spot, no death occurred, but by the time we got some ambulances to rescue those who were involved in the accident, we had lost three people. This is an accident that could have been avoided. In my conscience, I asked myself who is supposed to be spared. Are they the goats or human beings? The driver opted to save the lives of the goats only to cost three lives of human beings. Apart from the three who died, many others were maimed in the process. I support this Motion strongly."
