    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion. As it has been said, floods which are not natural have really affected us down there in Tana River and other counties, like Garissa, along the Tana River. Actually, these floods that are manmade and deliberate have caused disaster. Our crops which we grow during the rainy season have been destroyed whenever this water is released without notice by KenGen. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we appeal to the Government to, at least, compensate the farmers along Tana River. Tana itself is a delta and that is where we live. So, whenever this water is released without notice, settlements are washed away. Since the KenGen are deliberately releasing this water, we appeal to the Government to force them to compensate people and stop their deliberate action. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to second the Motion."
