    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the El Nino phenomena is a big problem now, and this is a whole topic on its own. The northern part of the country is severely affected. The North Eastern part of the country and the upper Eastern are the ones that have received the highest volume of rain, not just in the country, but also in the neighbouring countries, especially Ethiopia. That is why Marsabit County is affected in Logologo area and all those parts of Marsabit County. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you might have seen, the rains in your county, Meru County, have also severely affected roads in Garissa and Samburu Counties. For instance, the road from Garissa to Wajir, the road of Nuno Modogashe, the road from Wajir to Mandera, the road in Tana River, including Hola Town, where the only tarmac road we had in the town, was swept. We have had a meeting chaired by the Deputy President on response of El Nino, and the response is beyond my Ministry. Our Ministry is just dealing with the infrastructure challenges. At the moment, there is very little we can do to continue"
