    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to support the Motion. First of all, I support the two Ministers, namely, the Minister for Water and Irrigation and the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources who are here. I am saying this because it is on record that the two Ministers who are here are people who are decisive in this Government. We have seen their achievements. These are Ministers who do not play politics with the lives of Kenyans. They do what is right. In fact, I served under the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources sometime back when I was a District Commissioner and, actually, he went through so many challenges. That is why we are here now. So, I just want to tell the Minister that I am one of his secret admirers. Maybe, he does not know this because I do not visit him in his office. But I know quietly that he is one of the Ministers who is making this Government to move. I want to thank him for that. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is a pity that the money that has been allocated to the Ministry is not enough. We know what the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources has done for this country when he was the Minister for Transport and Communications. We are still waking up to the reality that what we are going through now in the Ministry of Transport is a problem. When he was in the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security, I am a witness. I do not know why his Ministry was not allocated a budget that is enough. I want to tell the Treasury that, this is one Ministry that is deserving because I know what it means to all Kenyans."
