"content": "which were in this country have been destroyed because of reckless leadership. So, I think the Motion is more important not only for northern Kenya but for the whole of this country. The wording here that drought is cyclic in nature is very key in the Motion because we have had food shortage because of drought not only in northern Kenya. The areas that produced food like what we used to call the high potential areas like Kitale, Eldoret and other areas have not been able to produce food because of drought. So, I support the Motion, not only for northern Kenya, but for the whole country. Agriculture being the mainstay of the economy, we really must put in place, measures which can make us produce enough food for the country. We can only do that with a Motion like this one. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not think the Government is fair by creating a Ministry for a certain region. It is good for a start, bearing in mind what we went through during the elections of 2007. But I am sure that the Minister is doing a good job. I have seen him and I know him. But I believe that anybody else who can be able to perform better in the Ministry should be able to run the Ministry. I am sure that the Minister, like any other Minister, would be thinking, maybe, of getting a promotion to some of the positions that I see in this country. He is not going to remain just there, just managing the Ministry of Development of Northern Kenya and other Arid Areas! He may become a Deputy Prime Minister, a Vice-President and eventually, the President! So, it is not abnormal."
