"content": "If you come to my constituency in Kiarago Ward, you will see that the place has no water, road, school or hospitals. The place is really marginalised and even when it comes to climatic conditions, the place is quite dry. Most of the times, people rely on relief food to survive. If a place like that cannot be referred to as a marginalised place, I wonder which other places can be called marginalised. To be a pastoralist does not mean that you are marginalised. Come and see Kajiado. If one goes to Kajiado, it is said that they have a railway line. Just last season, the place was so dry in a way that cows and human beings were dying. The place was not considered as a marginalised place. So, this idea of marginalised places must be reviewed in order to tell which place is really marginalised. You go to a constituency and find that only a section is rich, but the other sections are very poor. So, I support this Motion but there must be an amendment as was proposed by the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee."
