"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am so worried because if we allow this to continue, we will have more problems. For example, in one year in Laikipia, because of the drought and conflicts, we have already lost 11 police officers and 17 civilians; we also have 35 civilians who have been injured just because of the drought. If we manage the drought because our land is fertile, we are going to be productive and peaceful. Basically, we are going to reduce that amount of money that is used for purposes of bringing security in our area. If we are talking about the operationalisation of the National Drought Management Authority Act, we should ensure that the money is used for the intended purpose. There are times when programmes have been implemented without proper research. For example, some people end up doing a dam instead of a borehole. If research is not done properly we will end up in problems. I have never understood why we sit here and discuss issues which are not implemented. It appears like we come here to waste time. There is no need of passing motions that are not implemented. However, we will not relent. We will keep on reminding the people who are concerned to do their work, so that we do not keep on wasting time. With those few remarks, I support."
