"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I wish to express my gratitude to all the Senators who have given immense and very knowledgeable contributions on this Motion. I also thank the Seconder of the Motion, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, our very able Senate Majority Whip. I thank all the distinguished Senators who have contributed. I cannot thank them enough. Sen. Sifuna, Sen. Mandago, Sen. Wambua, Sen. Abass, Sen. Olekina, Sen. Tabitha Keroche, Sen. Oketch Gicheru, Sen. Syengo, Sen. Ali Roba, Sen. Cherarkey and yourself, Mr. Temporary Speaker. I also thank Sen. (Prof.) Kamar, Sen. Faki, Sen. Wamatinga, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda and the Senate Minority Leader. This House has made a choice today to stand with the people of Tana River County. It has chosen to stand with the people who have been over the edges, neglected, forgotten and despised by big mega projects that have had no consideration whatsoever. River and water management is not an issue we can joke with. We have spoken here and many other speakers have contributed. People are really waiting to go to war when it comes to fighting for water rights. It is just that we cannot do it in this country because we live here together. However, if we were in different territories, people would go to war because water is life. I remember the contribution by Sen. Oketch Gicheru. He said that the next world war would be about water resources. This tells us that we need to plan and start looking ahead."
