    "content": "Some of them have been ring-fenced by the rains. They do not know how to swim. They do not have canoes. They have never lived in such conditions and so they do not know what to do. Another issue which is devastating is the fact that the effects will last longer because crops have been destroyed by the extended rains. As a country we should look into this and ask ourselves whether we are prepared to feed our people. All the beans are destroyed and maize has stunted. As we consider how much to give the relevant Ministry, we should ask ourselves whether it will take care of this situation right now. We should look for long term solutions because we are likely to face food insecurity due to the prolonged rains. Healthcare has deteriorated and people are suffering from malaria and bilharzia because of floods. We need to declare this a national disaster so that a national disaster response mechanism can be put in place to salvage our people."
