We are now paying dearly for not listening to Prof. Wangari Maathai. We are now paying dearly for dismissing Prof. Maathai’s warning. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is nobody in this House or in this country who does not want the Mau Complex to be conserved. There is not. That is an important water tower. The mess that we are creating in Mau is affecting our neighbours. The Tanzanian Prime Minister was here the other day. He said that we should put our house in order because Lake Natron, which is in his country, is drying up because we have messed up the Mau. Indeed, if we are not careful, we will start seeing Egypt threatening this country and saying that by messing up the Mau Forests, we are affecting their security because they depend on water that originates from the Mau. So, I think there is nobody in this House or in the country who would not want Mau to be conserved. However, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is clear that we are putting too much emphasis on Mau. We have got other water towers which must equally be conserved. If there are squatters in any forest, they must be evicted immediately. We must conserve all the water towers, not just the Mau. If we do not do that, we are going to pay even more heavily. So, we must do it."
