    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for this opportunity. As the first Senator for Tana River County, I think I am better placed to come and discuss this important issue which affects counties. Tana River has not been represented over the years. Today is when the people of Tana River feel that they are represented. All these projects have been initiated by people who are not mindful of others. The project does not favour the people living downstream. Tana River which I represent which is being used as a buffer zone is the most affected place in Kenya. Tana River has also been affected by KenGen for the past 45 years. Other projects were initiated by the Executive. The Constitution of Kenya favoured the executive and not the locals. This is where we went wrong. It is today when we have the Senate which is representing the counties and county assemblies where we have county representatives. Today, we can discuss our issues fully. Therefore, we have a full Government where issues are discussed."
