"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we will hold workshops and seminars and we will also be asking Members to team up with us so that we can educate our people, just the way the Kenya Power and Lighting Company did on customer awareness. We would like to sensitize our people on the importance of these dams and how to maintain them. For example, I challenge hon. Members to go back to their constituencies and report back to us on how many dams are provided with water troughs and how many of those dams have watering points. Those are the major reasons why these dams are being silted. If you look in your own constituencies, you will see that farmers are farming near the dams and at the same level that the water should be. What do you expect when the rains come? Even wind itself will blow the soil back to the dam. Therefore, let us take our own responsibility and the Ministry will also take its own responsibility. The issue here is working together and educating our people."
