    "content": "arrive in Nairobi, they will be assured of movement to areas that they desire to see. I come from West Pokot which is very scenic. We have hills and valleys. We have the Marich Pass which separates two mountains and appears like a cave. If I was to move from Sondany Hills to Sekerr Hills where there is a lot of chromate and gold for people to see--- I want to entice Members in this House to support this Motion, so that they can come to see this gold. The second tallest mountain in Kenya, Mt. Mtelo, actually is found in West Pokot. People in that area believe that there is some god who resides there, but I am not sure whether it is true. But we can actually tell people to visit the area and see the “god” who is different from the One that we believe in. People may want to try and test everything else that they see. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in West Pokot County, we have a national reserve called Nasolot with one peculiarity in the whole world. The largest elephant on earth is found in Nasolot Game Reserve. Does anybody in this House know about this? To reach these animals, we may need to connect Turkwel to Kefei Hills using a cable car. But there are challenges that also need to be addressed, for example, insecurity in some areas. We also need to see how the current conventional means of transport can be improved. Sen. Musila mentioned the road network. It is indeed, true that we must address this. I have not been to Maasai Mara when it is raining, but I am told that you cannot move from one point to another one because of the mud. We need to improve our road network. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, someone talked about Lake Victoria. We have some tiny islands that people may want to visit. Some people are saying that we may use the port, but we do not want to spend a lot of time. We can introduce cable cars to save time. We need to think big. Sen. Karaba has talked about Rwanda. We are going there tomorrow with him and want to see what he is talking about. I know that there are so many hills in Rwanda and if, indeed, what he has talked about is true, then we can also move in the same direction. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, take the Menengai Crater in Nakuru, for example. You cannot drive into the crater. Is it possible then for this Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure to introduce these cable cars? We need to support such an initiative that has come. We need to venture and think big. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support this Motion."
