"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have listened to the response of the Statement. We thank God because one body was found. Communities and parents are going through a very hard and traumatising time as a result of what is happening in the country. Too many people have been washed away by floods because most rivers do not have bridges. The proposal to construct these bridges is important. We should look for a short-term solution to this problem because construction of bridges in the entire country will be expensive. When people drowned in River Enziu, some local divers did a lot of work in retrieving the bodies. They were promised to be trained so that they could react to such incidences faster. The problem is that the Government makes a lot of promises when such things happen. In another four months, the incident in Kericho will be a forgotten case. I wish we come up with a comprehensive programme to train local divers from these flood-prone areas. This will be cheaper for the Government and very convenient for the communities who live in these areas."
