    "content": "Thank you Hon. Speaker. Pursuant to Standing Order No 44(2) (c), I would like to request a Statement from Chairperson of Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives on drought management In Northern Kenya. Due to persistent drought in my area, already in my constituency two children have died out of thirst; boreholes have collapsed, pans have dried up, my District Headquarters in Modogashe has no water. In the statement, I wish to request the Chairperson to address, among other things, one, short-term and long-term measures on drought management and what the National Drought Management Authority is doing. Up to now, people are depending on water trucking which also might not be available at times. Secondly, the Chairperson should declare it a national disaster because the drought is biting, famine will be the result, and more people are likely to die. Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir."
