    "content": "Those people who die because of those conflicts are not better than the millions who die of thirst and hunger. Our rivers are drying up. For the first time in history, when I was in Narok County, Ewaso Nyiro River, Mara River, Siabei River and Sondu Miriu River have dried up. The water level of Sontu River has reduced. The electricity which was generated from Sondu Miriu has reduced. We should get petitions from this Government to alienate part of our holding grounds into forests and to go and conserve Boni Forest. We should get petitions from this Government to ask for funds from this House to fence Mau Forest, Mt. Longonot, Boni Forest and other forests. We should also get petitions from the Government on how they can develop forests in the middle of arid areas, including Marsabit, Mandera and part of Narok County and Kajiado County. If this House allows an inch of any of our forest to be allocated to people while our forest cover is at 1.7 per cent, it will be in history books. If we were at 15 or 20 per cent, we would negotiate. If the forest cover is below 10 per cent, all our forests must be conserved."
