"content": "I have heard the Minister talk about the NEMA which has all the powers that it requires through its Act, to assist in the management of the environment. Unfortunately, I do not think NEMA has done its job as required. This is because the other day, we heard about some youths who tried to attack a contractor in Spring Valley. Someone has just built some houses near the river, which means that it will dry up. I do not know how the contractor or developer came up with the project without the approval of NEMA. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I appreciate that now, the City centre looks clean, that initiative should also be extended to the estates. The estates have been left to the agents. I think it is important for the initiatives of the Ministry to extend to the estates. Obviously, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you have looked at Vision 2030, we are committed that by 2030, Kenyans will live a quality life in a clean and secure environment. I want to congratulate the officials of the Ministry because they are just doing that. I hope that they will continue doing that, so that Kenyans can enjoy quality life within a clean environment. Obviously, with a clean environment, the airborne diseases will be reduced and Kenyans will live a longer life."
