    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support the Petition from the Member for Kibwezi East. Human-wildlife conflict is becoming a problem within our society. Those communities which live next to the national parks or game reserves are perennially at war with animals. The issue of compensation from KWS is a thorn in flesh. I do not know why they do not give a budget for the same. The Cabinet Secretary in charge of the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife should budget some money to compensate those people who have been affected by wildlife, in their records. I say this because they keep on accumulating the figures and when asked they say there is no money. They should use part of their budget to reduce this burden because there is no time they will get full allocation to compensate the affected people. In my constituency, Igembe Central, which borders Meru National Park, people are attacked by animals every other day. Properties are destroyed and the list is endless, but there is nothing which has been done since 2013 when I started following these claims. It is high time KWS and their leadership put in funds so that they can compensate the people who have been aggrieved."
