"content": "I support this Motion because it will not only show the people the importance of this House, but will also bring us closer to the people. The only way that we can know what ails this country or the challenges of devolution is by going closer to the people. What we learned in Uasin Gishu County last year had to do a lot with the issue of the struggle in the maize industry. You can tell that, that has changed this year and that Government policies are designed in a way that whatever is generated generally, can be mopped out first before we allow imports into this country to kill our industries. Kitui is a very large county. In fact, I did not even know how big it was. I always thought that Narok County is so big; but Kitui County is almost twice the size of Narok County. As the Senator for Narok County, I would want to know what it is that we, the people or Narok County, can trade with the people of Kitui County. From the onset, I can see there is the cotton industry, something that we can benefit from."
