    "content": "One thing I really want to bring out in terms of intervention on the pastoral economy is that we realise we have the Kenya Meat Commission (KMC) in Nairobi, which is way far away from northern Kenya where pastoralism is practised. What subsequent governments have been doing and expecting is pastoralists who have engaged in business. I want Hon. Members to know that our people have begun engaging in business with their livestock. It is not as it used to be. Going forward, we want abattoirs established in each of the pastoral counties so that our people do not have to move their livestock like cows and goats all the way from, say, Lokitaung or Todonyang or Kibish to Nairobi, where the only KMC abattoir is located. The Government should be proactive and look into the needs of our pastoral communities. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for informationpurposes only.
