    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While I appreciate the Minister's answer, I think she has been misinformed. In Loiyangalani, the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation (NWCPC) did not do any feasibility studies to know where they will get the water from. So, how can you lay down a 21 kilometer piping when you have no idea where you will get the water from? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the NWCPC is totally wrong and it has never intended to finish the El-Molo project. It does not take a rocket scientist to understand that high levels of calcium and floride lead to tooth decay due to swolen bones. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when you visit the El-Molo, you will be very sympathetic. A 15 year-old kid can barely walk now! Those people rely on fishing. If you are a healthy kid, you can fish. If you do not have strong bones, you cannot even walk a kilometre to go and get food for yourself! So, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, NWCPC should be held accountable. I would like to request the Minister to actually make sure that she visits those areas and look at that project. Those people are suffering and their population growth has stalled as a result of that water issue. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like the Minsiter to tell us how much money she has budgeted this year for that water project. I would also like to discourage her from sending a rig because we have enough spring water there. All she has to do is to make sure that they tap the right springs in the right place."
