    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to talk about a Bill that does not touch on only one constituency or a county, but one that talks about the whole country. I have particularly been in areas in our country where people tell me: “We know that we got Independence in 1963.” The moment we give them water, whether it was in 1993 or 2014, they will tell us that: “Today is when we see independence because we have water”. I would also like to say that I am in the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources. Water is a very important thing, not only in our country or any county, but around the world. What happens? People fight over water. So, we must put systems in place; this is exactly what the Water Bill is doing now. It is putting systems in place. Last week I was in Garissa for our Committee work. We had a Member of Parliament, Mhe. Dukicha of Galole and his people were crying for water."
