    "content": "I have heard that elephants have invaded Lelaitich Location, Kabarua Area in my Constituency and the same elephants are destroying maize plantations and other food crops in that region. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources should be careful so that his people do not lie to him to bring statements to this honourable House that have no facts as they are on the ground. It is very important he gets facts from the ground so that he does not bring a lot of “English” here which is merely papers to be trashed. The truth is that Kenyans are suffering over wild animals. A nation cannot prefer wildlife to human beings. Human beings are very important. Even in the Bible, we are told that human beings were given powers to rule and take care of the animals. We cannot leave animals to take care of us just because of tourists who come to see them. We understand when we welcome tourists because we get foreign earnings, but we need to take care of human beings. If we cannot feed wild animals, they will feed on us. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I submit."
