    "content": "Lastly, on the same issue, we now have apartments all over. I will use my constituency, Dagoretti North, as an example. We now have boreholes all over but some of them are drying up despite the fact that guys have gone down 400 metres to look for water. As we look into regulating those who are undertaking bulk water purchasing and all these agreements, can we look at the critical ones that affect our lives? People in Nairobi are now drilling boreholes all over, and that is really affecting us. There is a borehole in every apartment. We read in history that the water table in Nairobi was very high. Why are people drilling up to 400 metres to get water? There must be a problem. We must look at it. I want to plead with the Senate to look at the water infrastructure. It is a big issue. We cannot continue the way we are today. We cannot be clamouring for improved water services and forget that we need improved infrastructure for that service to work. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
