    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of famine and drought is not a new agenda in this country. In our area, we have two rivers; the Athi River and the Tana River. I think it is high time the Government utilized the water from the two rivers on irrigation so that it can reduce the dangers that we are suffering right now. Among the solutions, I think it is high time the Government came up with a solution on the issue of water harvesting, creating a special task force and expanding food storage throughout the country. It is also high time that the Government admitted that Kenyans are suffering. We are going to witness cases of child labour and migration to slum areas. We are also going to have a problem of power. We all know that our country depends on hydro-electric power. With the drought, we are going to have a lot of power shortages. This will also affect our industries. I hope the Government will take note of all these things. With those few remarks I beg to support."
