    "content": " I wish to inform the Cabinet Secretary that currently, the waters of Lake Baringo are being tapped using a generator by the Geothermal Development Company (GDC) to generate geothermal power to Silali, a distance of about 100 kilometres. The County Government of Baringo has committed Ksh30 million for design for the harvesting of Lake Baringo water for irrigation to change the economic matrix around that particular place so that we can reduce the issue of banditry. This is because the water has already been harvested as you said. What is required is a pumping solar plant and pipeline which is a very easy job instead of building a Ksh20 billion dam. It is a project that requires about Ksh200 million, and you would have solved the issue of cattle rustling, food insecurity and water for drinking. Can the Cabinet Secretary take this as an innovative way to resolve conflict, provide food and the necessary resources?"
