    "content": "going to be exploited; we want them to be informed; we want to make sure that they will benefit from this natural resource. We have even said that our locals must benefit from this natural resource; we are not saying that other Kenyans should not benefit. We are saying, that as other Kenyans benefit, those who actually live next to where resources are should benefit more. Over time we have complained as a community of marginalization. That is why we see the issue of Kibwezi-Kitui-Mwingi- Isiolo Road becoming very central to us. We are saying that if this road is tarmacked, then it will open up our area; people will be able to benefit economically and even minerals, which are going to be exploited, will be easily transported to various parts of this country. So, I really want to support this Bill; I want to really commend the Committee for being able to pick these salient issues, which were left out by drafters. With those few comments, I support the Bill; I say thank you very much for giving me this opportunity."
