Gone are the days that aridity and semi- aridity was a preserve of a few counties in this country. As I said in the morning, 80 per cent of land is actually arid or semi-arid. Gone are the days when it was only Marsabit, Mandera, Wajir and Turkana counties. Right now, if you go to Kieni people are asking for relief food."}
