    "content": " Not really, Hon. Speaker. It is true that many sites were never officially closed in practise, but they were converted into some underworld dealings in cahoots with the security agencies, hence denying the local communities the chance to benefit from their natural resource. The people of Moyale agreed to live together in harmony with the local dispute resolution mechanisms having been put in place. Moyale is not in any way near Somalia. We are not anywhere near Somalia, and on behalf of the people of Moyale and Kenyans at large, I want that re-opening to be formalised and de-gazettement of the closure. The place was closed based on security grounds, thus denying people access to the natural resources and yet, allowing the security agencies to benefit with some other people. Let us de-gazette the closure and formalise the opening so that people can fetch whatever they can get. This is a gift from God after the severe drought of 2022/2023. We managed to get gold in our place. Why then should it be denied because of security reasons?"
