"content": "Research Organization (KALRO). They need to come up with types of crops or grass that can grow in those parts of the country so that we are able to build the capacity of our people to be able to come up with their own ways of feeding their livestock so that we can reduce these conflicts. This National Drought Management Authority (NDMA) needs to be empowered in terms of being given a budget. They also need to come up with regulations that can assist them so that they are able to assist our communities. Having said that, it should also be taken to the right Ministry. When I listened, I missed the issue of it being in the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government because we are not only looking at this issue as conflict but we also look at it as a food security issue. Therefore, it should go to the Ministry of Livestock. As my other colleague has said, the county governments should also, at the same time, give a bigger budget to the livestock sector so that we see how we can build the capacity of our people. Another issue is with regard to markets for our livestock. This time round, our communities waited for too long until they could not sell the livestock any more. Therefore, all of them were wiped out. Right now when schools will be reopening in January, there is nothing that they can depend on in terms of school fees, health and food. Thank you."
