"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I appreciate the Prime Minister’s response and what the Government has done so far, I can testify to you that as a leader of that region that this has been happening. The issue of supporting the livestock sector, in particular providing strategic water points for our livestock to save the livelihoods of the pastoralists, has not been done well enough. It is true that the food rations have been doubled and people are getting food. However, it is not just about saving lives; it is about saving the livelihoods of these pastoralists, so that after this drought, they will have a livelihood to support them and not be dependent on food aid. We need support for the livestock sector in terms of strategic water points drilled as well as providing hay to areas that are worst affected."
