"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have seen the Report on afforestation. We should do much more than we are doing, as a country. I want to correct the Chief Whip who said that this country has only 2.9 per cent forest cover. The forest cover reduces every day. See what is happening in Mau Forest. I want to echo what Hon. Mberia has just said that we should have a full-fledged ministry of environment and natural resources, so that it can ably develop a blue print on what is required in the country. We can then follow through such a blue print like someone reading the Bible. The climatic condition of the country is changing for worse every day because of the reducing forest cover. Therefore, I take this opportunity, as a national leader, to encourage the Ministry of Natural Resources, which is currently being overseen by my good friend, Hon. Kareke Mbiuki, to develop a strategic plan and tell the country where we are going in the next five years. If you go to the Ministry Headquarters today, you will find that they have nothing."
