    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to respond on behalf of this side of the House. We strongly support the passing of this Motion and the enactment of a Bill so that the Government can wake up to the reality of the food situation in this country. It is very sad and I hope the Minister is listening to this, it is our areas that generate water which flows to the dessert countries of northern Africa, which are able to produce more food than us. They have done so for many years, using our water, yet, where the rivers originate from, our people are starving. That can be associated to lack of knowledge. As the Lord told prophet Isaiah, I quote the prophet: \"Mwenyezi Mungu alisema watu wangu wanaangamia kutokana na ukosefu wamaarifa.\" That is the truth."
