    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to add my voice to the Statement sought by the Member for Taita Taveta. I thank the Chairman for his response on the matter. I want to be on record that Tsavo East National Park touches part of my constituency in Mtito Andei. It is, indeed, true that when there is a fire, my constituents join the people of Taita Taveta to put it off, because we border each other. It is true that when elephants move from the national park, they come to our area. We have had a lot of human-animal conflicts for the longest time. As the Member for Kibwezi East, I have brought a petition to this Parliament on this issue, with the same Chairman addressing us. I want to support the Member for Taita Taveta County by saying that we really need implementation of the issues that were raised. Mtito Andei is in Kibwezi East Constituency and it borders Taita Taveta. We have been more affected than the people of Taita Taveta because elephants get into our shambas and our people are frustrated. So, it is important for the Chairman and the Committee on Implementation to ensure that this matter is brought to an end."
