    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with a lot of respect to the hon. Member, I do not understand how he co-relates the Kshs300 million spent on buying seeds and the Kshs8 billion spent on famine support. The intention of the Government is not to make Kenyans dependent on it. But we had a very serious drought last year. We also had little rain. As I said, the seed that was given, worth Kshs300 million, was mainly for food crops that would do well in the drought-prone areas. The idea was to make people have enough food to feed themselves immediately after the drought and short rains. So, with respect, I cannot understand how the relationship between the donations or gift of Kshs300 million for seed, could be related or equated to the amount of money used to alleviate the drought and famine that was in the country last year."
