    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is the distinguished Senator for Nairobi City County, who is also my nephew. Therefore, he is a distinguished nephew. I thought he would speak about the Dandora eyesore, and the same thing is in Kisumu City. I have a pile of letters from my own county residents protesting about dumping. The question is not dumpsites; it is the ability of the cooperation between the national Government and county governments to set up solid waste management processes by erecting incinerators and sorting components, so that all the solid waste that we have is burned away and converted into energy, manure and other by-products. This Petition should enable the Committee concerned to have a wholistic approach and look at the whole country; whether it is Mombasa or even small towns like Salgaa where there is solid waste by the roadside. It is a serious problem that we need to deal with. I do not quite agree with Sen. Cheruiyot that we pilot this in two counties. What we need to do as a House is to carry out an assessment of the needs of each and every county. If we really care about the environment, we need to have a direct provision of resources in the budget for each county for solid waste management."
