    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I appreciate the efforts by the Minister to answer the Question, the lengthy part of it was to be laid on the Table, and the specific part was to just confirm the numbers. The Minister says it is not true that relief food beneficiaries have been reduced. I want to say that, that is not correct. Turkana Central District has five divisions. In March, the total beneficiaries were 66,845 but because of the failure of the long rains, an October 14, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2667 assessment was done which increased the number in June to 112,003. I have copies of documents representing the months that I am talking about, namely March, June and September. As we talk now, the figures were reduced in September, from 112,003 to 104,140. Is that not a reduction? I do not know where this Minister lives. Right now the Press is running a programme known as \"Turkana Arise\". Every person in this house must be watching Turkana people as they starve. Two weeks ago the Minister was there and promised to increase food and the number of beneficiaries but now, on the Floor of the House, she is saying that she is not increasing it. Shame!"
