    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also want to support the Vote for the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife. I would like to make a few comments. The Minister has talked about major issues that the Ministry is supposed to be dealing with. He has mentioned the issue of afforestation and reaforestation. I believe that this country has faced a lot of destruction. When you move around, especially by air, you will see that there is a lot of destruction of our forests. I think the Minister is justified in saying that he needs more money to save this country. If you go to any European country, for example Germany, as you approach the cities, you will see that they are all green. All the land from Nairobi here was supposed to be green. However, it has all been grabbed. I understand that people are still grabbing it. I am happy that the two responsible Ministers are here. I think such things should be stopped completely, if we have to make our country the way we want it to be. Nairobi was fondly referred to as the “Green City in the sun.” I just want to talk about compensation. I am happy that the Minister has increased the allocation on compensation. I hope he is talking about compensation in specific figures the way we have been requesting. I think they should go into details. As I support this Motion, I would like to remind Waziri that I also had an issue of compensation. There was somebody who was mauled by lion or a wild animal. The Minister gave an assurance in this House that compensation would be made, but up to date, it has never been made. Since your PS is here, I would like to remind you that the man who was attacked was Mr. Joram Ochenga from Maragoli Hills."
