    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is unfortunate that somebody can ban drones. They are actually called unmanned aircrafts. For me to know how the migration happens in the Maasai Mara, somebody followed the Wildebeest using a drone until the crossing. It is possible that, that person paid a lot of money for the licensing. That is a job you can give young men to do. Aerial photography is being done all over the world. To manage the traffic jam in Nairobi, we need aerial photography and drones to be able to fly over Uhuru Highway and identify where there are trouble spots. The only reason there is a prohibition is to make sure that only rich people in this country are the only ones who can fly drones. If you go to shops all over the world, these drones are like toys; they are bought everywhere. It is only in Kenya where you would make a prohibition. Sen. Sakaja, maybe you are not aware the regulations were published recently in the Kenya Gazette, maybe three or four weeks ago. That is the place where we should go. If we cannot get a resolution, Sen. Sakaja, you are famous for going to court; go and get them nullified. That is what you need to do. Get an Omtatah somewhere because the regulation making process is not supposed to be a legislative making process. When I stood here and said regulations cannot substitute Parliament, this is what I meant. Sen. Sakaja, when you were voting for the ceiling, this is what I was stopping you from doing. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
