"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I would like to thank the Prime Minister for the very serious Ministerial Statement he has issued on what everybody knows is a matter of life of death in this country. The Prime Minister has talked a lot on, mainly, the Mau Forest. In other areas, we are told that the forest cover in this country, which used to be at least 10 per cent, is now about 1.7 per cent. This is not due to the destruction of the Mau Forest only. There are other areas that the Prime Minister has mentioned: The Aberdares Forest, Mount Kenya Forest, Cherengany Forest and Mount Elgon Forest. I will be grateful if the Prime Minister could also elaborate a bit on the measures he is going to take, particularly in Mount Elgon and Cherengany, so that we also do not jump from one area of the Mau Forest into another; we should actually look at the forest cover in the country comprehensively, because, as he said, this is a matter of life and death in this country."
