"content": "understand the knowhow to use the water that these boreholes generate, we can have small-scale irrigation so that people can have small farms where they can be able to grow vegetables and sell them to the local markets and, it can spur economic development. There is no desire as I see under the current constitutional dispensation for the Government to move in this format. That is why, as a country, we must vote very resoundingly for Yes in order to change the design or structure of Kenyans. If we do not change the design or the structure, we will continue to complain about Government resources not going to the grassroots time-in, time-out. Therefore, I support this Motion and I want the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to come here and tell us what he wants to do with the Ministry of Development of Northern Kenya. Otherwise, if there is no increment for that Ministry, I would like the Minister for Internal Security to communicate this to the President; âplease fold up the Ministry, remove it from the shelves of our cabinets. We do not need it if there is no funding. We will only require it in as long as it is funded.â This is a message that I am sure the Minister and his colleague, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, will deliver to the President. With those few remarks I support the Motion."
