    "content": "benefiting from their ancestoral land. They have lived on that land for many years but what are they getting? Nothing. So, this Bill will help a young boy, a young girl who lives in Laisamis Constituency to get to better education with those funds and also get a better life. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will bring a Bill to this House that will give the community, County Government and the national Government shares percentage. We also have a beautiful rainforest in Marsabit County. If you remember, there was an elephant called Ahmed. He died in Marsabit County and was brought to the museum in Nairobi City County. The people in Marsabit County are supposed to benefit from Ahmed, the elephant. However, we are not getting anything. That is our natural resource. If this Bill will go through, that means the people in Marsabit County can also enjoy their natural resources. Mr. Speaker, this Bill will, in fact, make other investors who are going to invest in any place know that there is something for the community as opposed to what is happening now in a place like Marsabit County. We are producing electricity which is delivered to the people in Nairobi City County yet in Marsabit County, there are blackouts every night. So, we are not getting what is rightfully ours. We do not enjoy electricity. The people in Nairobi City County are enjoying electricity while people in Marsabit County; children and women are suffering. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support this Bill"
