"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I appreciate the answer given by the Minister, I want to draw her attention to the fact that when that dam will be constructed, it will affect four constituencies; Mathioya, Kangema, Kiharu, Kigumo and even Maragua. An area covering four kilometers square is a large area. That is one of the resources of the Murangâa County. We have Ndakaini Dam which serves Nairobi County. The advert that was posted on the papers said that they will use Irate Mathioya and Maragua rivers. That dam is going to serve Nairobi and Ongata Rongai among other areas. My question is with regard to the impact that the dam will have on the communities. The communities will be denied their high potential land. Up to now, the consultant who was engaged has not made an effort to talk to the communities. What would be the economic value addition to farmers who will be losing their productive land? Has the Minister made arrangements to go and address the concerns of the communities for losing that large area?"
