    "content": "Secondly, as Senators, we will be responsible for developing a law that will do two things. First, one that will reward our people accordingly following the pleas of Sen. Juma Boy and secondly, ensure that investors are attracted to putting their capital in exploiting these minerals. I speak coming from a region called the Lake Basin Counties. These include Homa Bay, Migori, Nyamira, Kisii, Kisumu, Siaya, Busia, Kakamega, Vihiga, Bungoma and Trans Nzoia. If you look at all these counties, you will see that they share certain geographical characteristics. In those geographical characteristics, you will find certain minerals. As Sen. Wetangula said, this rare earth metal which exists even in that part of the world has not been exploited. Tremendous gold deposits are to be found in a radius that stretches from northern Tanzania into Homa Bay, Migori, cutting across Kakamega, Bungoma and then disappearing through Turkana. If this is studied properly, you will find that there are a lot of mineral resources available there. We also know that Tullow, the oil company that surveyed Turkana and discovered oil has been very active in the Lake Basin Counties looking for oil. I know for certain that in Nyakach, my county, there is potential and that we may have oil as much as Libya has. If that is true, most Senators should befriend me rather early because I will be a Senator very highly sought after."
