    "content": "Thank you, Madam Speaker. I rise to ask a supplementary question. Last week, we lost a gentleman, Mr. Kimani from Igembe North, Antuabetwe Kiongo Ward, who was killed by an elephant. The same elephant trampled down several houses and destroyed crops. I think the Cabinet Secretary or the Director General of the KWS is aware of this. As my colleagues have put it, human-wildlife conflict is a serious problem in Kenya. Even when I served in the National Assembly, as you heard the Cabinet Secretary mention, the backlog was maybe up to 2013 and we are now in 2014. The Ministry must come up with a strategy on how to compensate people who have been killed and those who have lost their property. The reason we have this problem, especially in Meru is because the national park needs a lot of facilities. The animals there need water, but there are no water pans programmed. Madam Cabinet Secretary, when will water be available for the animals in Meru National Park? Another issue is accessibility. The roads to the national park are also dilapidated. In a summary, my question is about compensation, plans by the Ministry to provide water for the wildlife in Meru National Park and opening up of roads therein."
