    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that monkeys and baboons are a problem to the farmers of Nguirubi area of Ndeiya Location since the Member of Parliament for Limuru Constituency made an official report to the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), late May this year. (b) The KWS has an office at Ngong Town headed by a warden and assisted by outposts in Limuru and Kamae where problem animal control rangers to deal with conflict problems are based to ensure quick response to reported cases. My Ministry through the KWS has taken the following steps to address the monkey and baboon menace in Limuru:- (i) The Warden in Ngong has deployed additional sergeants and four rangers to the existing five rangers with a vehicle and equipment to handle the monkey and baboons issues in Limuru. So far, several monkeys have been eliminated during the problem animal control exercise. Patrols have been intensified with the aim of reducing crop raiding incidents and community members have been advised on how to scare the animals back to the surrounding forest. (ii) The warden is working together with the Provincial Adminstration, and especially the chiefs, to ensure cases reported to them reach the KWS service personnel on time."
