"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have been waiting for the whole afternoon such that I almost doubted technology. First, I rise to support the subject matter in discussion but before I make any comments, let me join my colleagues, Kenyans and the people of Nyeri to send my condolences to the family of Dr. Wahome Gakuru, the former governor of Nyeri. Also on behalf of the people of Funyula, the same goes to the people that have lost their lives in this month of November when we Catholics remember the departed souls. We particularly remember those who have lost their lives as a result of police brutality while exercising their democratic right. The question of climate change has been a thorny issue in the Third World. In my years as a lecturer at the University of Nairobi (UoN), I have had on many occasions undertaken research to ascertain the connection or relationship between climate change and land use conflict. The results are very clear that unless we address climatic change, competition for natural resources, especially in nomadic and semi-arid areas, is going to become a social and security issue. Therefore, this policy is timely and we hope it will not be left to rot in the shelves. Measures and intervention plans must be put in place to ensure that what is provided for is implemented in all aspects of our life."
