    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would also like to join my colleagues in saying that this is a job that needed to be done. In fact, I would like to thank the two Chairs of the Departmental Committee on Energy, Communication and Information and Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources for coming together to realize the dream that the Kenyan people have been looking for. Parliament has now come into the midst of making agreements, scrutinizing them and ensuring that the Kenyan people benefit from the resources. As my colleagues have just said before me, most of those resources have been exploited in a bad way at the expense of the people and for the benefit of a few. I think it is important that Parliament is involved in most of those transactions because we are the watchdogs of the people. We are the people’s representatives and this is something we should do with due diligence and knowing that it is our duty to protect the environment, natural resources and our people. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
