    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I want to support the Motion and denounce the directive which was given by the Government that all goods must be transported through the SGR. In the first place, it appears this railway line was never thought of properly. It was done in a hurry. We do not know what the agreement said, but it was done in a lot of secrecy. It is high time as leaders we demanded to know the contents of the agreement between the governments of China and Kenya. Two, if we are going to force everybody to use the SGR, it means all the towns all the way from Changamwe to Mlolongo are going to close down. How many Kenyans have been employed by the railway line apart from the Chinese? If we are insisting that all the goods will be transported through the railway line, it means all Kenyans who are employed by the transport companies, including their dependents and everybody who owns a hotel or a shop along the road will close down because of one entity. We shall not allow this. As leaders, it is high time we demanded to see the contents of the agreement between the two governments. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
