    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. First and foremost, I want to thank Hon. Bwire for bringing up this Petition. My constituency borders Meru National Park. In fact, half of the whole area borders it on the northern side. The eastern side of it borders my constituency. You know very well that Isiolo is purely community land. The western and southern side of Meru National Park is fenced by a small fence belonging to the Kenya Wildlife Services (KWS). So, the open side is my constituency. Every other time we have wildlife moving out of the Parks into my constituency. It is a dispersal area and corridor to my constituency but we have never had any problems about poaching. Our community has been mindful about wildlife whenever they are out of the parks. However, during the drought, the KWS does not care about our livestock going into the park, at least for survival. What they are doing is more than inhuman because they use helicopters to chase those weak animals and sometimes most of them die in the field. So, we need to think about the pastoralists who are neighbouring these protected areas."
