    "content": "Training our children at this point in time is preparing them to become powerful global citizens. Powerful global citizens mean people who are informed and empowered with knowledge. Our children will travel far and wide and we wish and hope it happens. When you go to other countries, like the right hand keeping countries in terms of driving, you will have challenges keeping the vehicle on the road. Normally, people try to remain in the middle of the road and the turnings can confuse someone. I remember I drove in Japan and I had issues with keeping the vehicle on the road. It is important for us to train our children so that they can become better even out there because we do not expect them to live in this country forever. The rules of different countries change particularly when it comes to changing lanes. There is need for us to look at what we are doing in terms of roads in urban centres. We need to fully designate emergency lanes. The emergency lanes need to be marked and blocked for that specific purpose and use. Sometimes you realise that when there is need for emergency response, our roads are blocked and ambulance and fire safety vehicles cannot access the buildings that are burning. Therefore, it is very difficult. In Nairobi, we are designating some roads as one way. That is the way to go. It is the way the world has gone. We need to emphasise a lot more on that."
