    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Government has licensed the construction of 300 megawatt Turkana wind power project at a cost of 700 million Euros, that is over Kshs70 billion. The project will be located at Loyangalani in Marsabit County. The Government is also investing in the construction of a transmitter line from Loyangalani to Suswa at a cost of 583 million Euros, that is over Kshs60 billion. Mr. Speaker, Sir, oil has been discovered in Turkana County. I have invited the African Development Bank to consider establishing a tripartite consultative forum so that Kenya, Uganda and South Sudan can explore how to develop jointly the oil-related infrastructure in the region. This will help to avoid duplication and bring synergy benefits through cost sharing. But most importantly, the forum will help develop the appropriate mechanisms for the sharing of oil wealth with the local communities. The Government has undertaken livestock vaccinations and treatment, training of pastoralists, branding of livestock including electronic traceability of livestock and construction of slaughter houses within the county. Again I am tabling a list of livestock- related projects in Turkana County."
