    "content": "Mr. Minister, I sympathise with you because you were given a Ministry, and not tools. I even think that the Kshs2 billion that you were able to receive is just for your salary, the salary of your staff and other recurrent expenditure. This shows the level of lack of seriousness in this Government. I want to join my colleagues in urging the Government to be serious about its work. In the last few months, we have been treated to some circus. In three or four Cabinet sittings, they were not able to agree on who is going to lead the others to The Hague. We know that all of them will be going to The Hague. So, what is the big deal in deciding who starts the journey? They should stop wasting Kenyans’ time and just agree: “This is how we will go. As we go, how do we leave Kenya?” That would be more important to us. They should give the attention that is required to issues that will help the people of this country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I conclude, it is important for my colleagues to note that the issue of drought in this country is not only directly proportional to the responsibilities of Members of Parliament of the North Eastern Province. When I look around, I find it funny that it is only about Members of Parliament from the North Eastern Province who are here, trying to support the Motion before the House, which is going to help the whole country. So, I would like my colleagues to appreciate that we are in the National Assembly to provide solutions on behalf of all Kenyans. With those many remarks, I beg to support."
