    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank Sen. Lesuuda for having given me one minute. I was once the director of Kenya Meat Commission (KMC) in the 1970s when things were running well. I recall receiving a delegation from Botswana who came to study how we run the KMC. They went back to their country and copied us completely but theirs is thriving and ours has gone down. This Motion which has been brought is very important because in Africa, we tend to sit on our wealth. We do not utilize our wealth and we do not utilize what we have. The passage of this Motion and the support that we shall have on it from the county governments--- Even the national government should take an active interest in terms of an agricultural policy to support livestock development in this country and to give the necessary funds to the county governments to put up modern abattoirs and the infrastructure that goes around it so that the area can develop the way it is meant to do. I support."
