    "content": "Report. We appeal to the Committee to go back and involve the leaders of the community right from the county level up to the Members of Parliament so that the community is involved. From the Report, we realise that the community is not rejecting the establishment of the military base. They are saying that they were not involved in the process, and that they do not know what is going to befall them in terms of the environmental effects of military operations. It is important, as Members of this House, to be serious and talk on behalf of members of the community and this country. Whenever members of a community are dissatisfied with some operations, it is important for us to go back and listen to them because it is our constitutional mandate that we must do public participation until everybody is brought onboard. Once everybody is satisfied, we should avoid displacement of people and issues to do with land where people are not compensated and are left to struggle with life when they are supposed to be protected by the same Government that we serve."
