    "content": "in town you are likely to see street boys tampering with water pipes. They use the water to wash vehicles. So, in this country, we need to put down rules even if we are crying of drought and other things. The rules are not proper. With the rules against deforestation, many of our forests are now down and there is nowhere we can go. We beat people like the Masai, Samburu and people of North Eastern. The Government should come up with a policy of planting trees in those areas. I have been in the military and wherever we were--- I stayed in Moyale and within the three years I was there, we had planted trees. The other day we passed there and it is now a big forest. So, there is nowhere trees cannot grow. It is just how to manage them. I am supporting this Bill and I hope it is going to be implemented so that it can bring some changes in this country. If we continue this way, very many people in this country are going to die of hunger. People will not even have water for drinking. The Government should move faster. When shall we stop supplying pasture to our animals? They are spending a lot by giving pasture to people in dry areas. It is very costly to this country. The Jubilee Government has young President and Deputy President. I hope that, together with other leaders, we will bring changes in this country by implementing this Bill. In the process, we will help Kenyans. I know that even the birds will rejoice. With those remarks, I support."
