    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for the answer. But if you remember, this Question has been deferred severally. She is talking about improving catchment areas around the Kerio and Turkwel rivers, which contribute only 10 per cent of the water into Lake Turkana. Our major concern is the damming of River Omo, which contributes about 90 per cent of the water level. Due to the damming of River Omo in Ethiopia, the level of the lake has dropped by over ten metres! That lake has three sites that have been declared world heritage sites. The decrease of water levels will affect both the flora and fauna, and the economic lifestyle of about 500,000 people. It will not only affect the people around Lake Turkana, but also on the other side of Marsabit and Chalbi districts!"
