    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the petition. It will be a double tragedy if the marginalized people of Turkana were again disposed of their basic rights because of the discovery of oil. I think it is important that there should be transparency in the prospecting of oil in that part of the country to allow those people to benefit from the resources that have been fortunately found under their soil. It is also important to have protection mechanism in any arrangements in future to ensure that they benefit from the social and economic of the oil prospective in which we should allow a significant percentage of that income to be used for the development of this people rather than for the enrichment of a few. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would also like to say that we need to protect the region of the County of Turkana from carpet beggars who will be streaming once the oil has been found in order to benefit from that and further marginalize the people of Turkana."
