    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Agriculture is the key to food security in this country. It is one of the drivers of the Big Four priority areas of this Government. I want to urge the Ministry of Agriculture to allocate irrigation more funds going forward than the amount allocated to water storage and flood control. We know irrigation is an area which ensures there is enough food in this country. I hope the Kshs.10 billion allocated for water storage and flood control will be utilised in the hilly areas like Kirinyaga because we have many gullies and floods occur in the lower areas. We would like to see the Government do a lot to control flood waters and create temporary dams for irrigation."
