    "content": "terms of awareness and planning because in two weeks’ time, the water problem will turn from being a solution to another disaster. We are told that it is likely to rain from 1st April. At the moment we are struggling to deliver food to those who need it now. Tomorrow, we will be unable to deal with floods and the havoc that is going to be caused by huge rains. We know next year at such a time as this, there will also be drought in some parts of the country and if we do not do something, people will die. We need to just deal with the simple things of planning. It does not need rocket science to solve the problems that is in place. Therefore, I suggest and I have always argued; county governments should not put so much effort in building big infrastructure or big buildings and houses but must do the simple things; identifying the needy people, moving the food from where it is stored to those who are needy using the resources effectively both at the national and county levels. I suggest, therefore, as a House, this Senate must put in place mechanisms that will ensure that one year down the line, county governments can be held to account when it comes to food security, drought management, and starvation management in the country. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
