    "content": "Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker, Sir, for granting me this opportunity to support the Motion moved by Sen. Gataya Mo Fire on food security in the country. Food is national security, energy, economy, employment and everything. When Sen. Gataya Mo Fire brought this Motion, he took the House through the challenges that have led to the situation that we are experiencing. Although he made reference to the economic and social rights under Article 43 of the Constitution, food security in agricultural production for human beings and livestock is a matter of justice. Last week, we had a debate with Sen. Wambua of Kitui County about the security of the people that had been compromised by the neighbouring counties in search of pastures for their camel. This is a very important Motion that the Government should consider. I applaud Sen. Osotsi for urging Hon. Senators to ensure that as we conclude on such debates, we do not just urge the Government or relevant Ministries to take a certain action, we should make resolutions that are binding to relevant Government entities and institutions. Otherwise, it will just be a mere debate and a conversation on what we feel as a House."
