"content": "Secondly, it is pleasing to listen to the good stories from Israel—that Israel is one of the countries deemed or praised to have best access to water in the world. As at now, Israel is refilling the Sea of Galilee. It is desalinating the Mediterranean Sea’s water to refill the Galilee Sea. It is said the refilling is giving upward levels of half a metre of water per year into Galilee. Israel is able to export water to neighbouring countries like Jericho and Bethlehem. Learning from Israel should be advantageous to us. In counties like Turkana, we have aquifers. It is said that one of the biggest aquifers in Lotikipi in Turkana West can serve Kenya for more than 70 years without recharge. It looks like we have a lake in those areas. We have so many other aquifers in Turkana. They are more than five. If we harness them, we can have adequate water for the whole of Kenya. It can even be exported to other countries. I support the Petition, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
