    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to the debate on President’s Address. First of all, I want to take this opportunity to thank the President for performing his constitutional mandate. This is a new era where the Constitution mandates the President to come to this House and tell us exactly what the Government has done for the one year it has been in power. I must thank the President because of the poaching menace that he talked about. I am one of those Members of Parliament who have been affected by this menace. This is because 75 per cent of my constituency is a national park. The President mentioned that the Government is going to deal with cartels that are killing our wildlife. I wished that the President would come out very clearly on an independent commission that can address this issue of wildlife. This is a natural resource which we, if we are not careful, as a country, can easily lose. It is because people are coming from outside this country and are using our youth to kill this wildlife. I am a little bit disappointed that the President did not tell us exactly what the Government is intending to do. I was really very happy when I saw the Cabinet Secretary saying that the Government has recognized that there is a problem within Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS)."
