    "content": "Another problem we have is in the Mau Forest. In the Mau Forest we had a cutline around the forest but some people have moved right inside the forest. Mount Kenya, which is near my constituency, is in a sorry state. If you go into the forest, you will see lorries of millers driving out with logs despite the recent directive that imposed a ban on logging of trees. That is not important because even those who are given the responsibility to protect the forest are actually bribed daily. So, we beat our own system. For us to move forward, let us have some incentives. Let us have some programme where if someone has five acres of land, he reserves, say, 1 per cent of it or one acre for trees. Such person should be given an incentive. Those who cut trees should be encouraged to replace them. Let us give some incentives so that people can be encouraged to plant trees, be it within school compounds, church compounds or within one’s home compounds. All such open places should be covered by trees."
