    "content": "I will be very brief, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank you for giving me this opportunity to support the Petition presented to the House by Hon. Korere, on behalf of the people of Laikipia. I feel the pain of the people of Laikipia. As one of the Members of Parliament who has a national park resident in their constituencies, I know what the people of Laikipia are going through. I urge the Committee of the National Assembly that is responsible for this to expand their inquest a bit and find out whether other places face this problem. Ruma National Park is a disaster for my constituency. I know it is an important resource for this country, but as residents near Ruma National Park, we have suffered a lot, including suffering from attacks on people and crops by wild animals as well as infestation by Tsetse flies. There are times when my constituents think of cutting trees in the park and burning it. This matter of human-wildlife conflict needs to be looked into critically by this House and a solution be found because the National Assembly has the responsibility of resolving issues that are of concern to the people of Kenya."
