    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to say I welcome the Kenya Wildlife Policy 2020. First of all, perusing through the policy, I have realized that it is really good. The committee has actually looked at many areas which need to be streamlined. I know Kenya Wildlife Service and our tourism are almost intertwined. We know that most of the parks we have in Kenya are a great attraction to both visitors and us Kenyans. However, there are issues which are associated with this particular problem. We have the human wildlife conflict and I know in the policy they have tried to address mitigation measures. Those of us who come from Mogotio areas know that it is not really an area for wildlife as such, but it is almost like a corridor. We are experiencing a lot of elephant’s invasions from Laikipia area as they cross towards Mau forests. Most of these elephants cause a lot of obstruction. This particular year, my constituents have suffered a lot. We lost a lot of crops in certain areas due to several times invasion from the elephants. I would like to say there are other types of wildlife like the flamingos. The best site to watch flamingos is Lake Bogoria which is right in Mogotio. It is a good site to watch and it is a wonder to behold."
