    "content": "in Lokichogio. I recommend that the LAPSSET Corridor be quickly implemented. It will help in opening up of the northern frontier counties to international trade through the Port of Lamu. The LAPSSET Corridor goes through Garissa and Isiolo, and it connects to the Marsabit Road through Moyale to Ethiopia. It then comes through Samburu, down all the way to Turkana. It then goes up through Lokichogio to Nakodok in South Sudan. If that corridor is opened, it will open up the northern frontier counties to trade in the same way the highway from Mombasa to Malaba has opened up trade along that route. It will also help in reducing conflict in those regions. Those regions are victims of Sessional Paper No.10 of 1965, which subjected them to legal marginalisation. With those few remarks, I support the recommendations of the Committee and laud the Members for a job-well-done."
