    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, in effecting the order for restriction of movement, the Cabinet Secretary for Health, in Legal Gazette No. 51 dated 6th April, 2020, set the boundaries of the Nairobi Metropolitan Area. In the set boundaries, I have observed that a roadblock has been set up on Thika Road, at Kilimambogo area about 56 kilometers from Nairobi City and only about three kilometers to the boundary between Machakos County and Kiambu County. On the Nairobi-Naivasha Road, the roadblock is located at Uplands, about 45 kilometers from Nairobi City Centre. On Mombasa Road, the roadblock is located at Small World in Athi-River which is about 35 kilometers from Nairobi City Centre. On Kangundo Road, the roadblock is located in Kamulu area, 36 kilometers from Nairobi City Centre. Mr. Speaker, Sir, Thika and Mombasa roads share a lot of economic and social features including industrial and residential boom. Thousands of Kenyans live in Thika and work in Nairobi and vice versa. Similarly, thousands of Kenyans live in Machakos and work in Nairobi and vice versa. The said counties are, therefore, greatly inter- dependent and affected by the effects of the pandemic."
