    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to support this Statement because it is a very important issue. Unfortunately, I have seen a lot of misinformation in the course of the debate. I thought it wise to perhaps keep quiet, listen and see as people are being informed and misinformed as well on the importance of these unmanned aircraft and the purpose they are meant to serve. I think the whole point on this debate is where the Government sits down and comes up with a blanket ban on an entire industry without thinking through a particular exercise. This is not the first time that this is being done. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you are fairly familiar with various towns in the Rift Valley. If you go to Molo and Njoro today; those towns are completely dead. The reason is that somebody sat in a well air-conditioned office at the Kenya Forest Service (KFS) and thought that the people who are involved in timber and sawmilling business are a nuisance to this country and imposed a blanket ban."
