    "content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, I thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I guess I have my minutes because I had not done my contribution. I support the appointment of the former Member of Parliament, Hon. Martin Ogindo. He has served in this House and he is well qualified. If you look at his credentials, you will find that he has requisite qualifications to head the KFMA. For that reason, I support him. Fish consumption in Kenya has had an upward trend. Many Kenyans have better income from fish farming. There is also an appreciation of the nutritional value in fish. Our country is a net exporter of fish. We have a net worth of US$1.5 billion out of fisheries production. Most of this fish production is practised in freshwater lakes, oceans, what we call marine fishing, and farmed fish that we call aquaculture fishing, which happens across the country. Nyeri County is one of the leading aquaculture-farmed fish, particularly Tilapia, and ornamental fish farming. Several counties around the Mt. Kenya region are also doing very well in ornamental fish farming."
