"content": "I have listened to my colleagues from other parts of the country and heard them speak about animals they would like to be included in this amendment Bill. I totally support because I have seen the pain my people go through, when wildlife invades their gardens and harvests their crops. As we speak today, a meeting is going on in my county Laikipia in Njorua. The discussion is about the human-wildlife conflict. It will be unfair for me not to support my colleagues who feel the need to include other animals for compensation by the Government. We also need to remind KWS that compensation is not compensation unless done timely. These people lose their lives, their produce and ways of earning a living. So, compensation should be done effectively. Equally, we should consider fencing around the forests to avoid elephants from getting out. I wonder what will be done to the ocean? We need to have preventive measures rather than solving problems when they occur."
