"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I also come from Bomet, which is surrounded by another forest, Chepalungu Forest. For the last eight years, the Government allowed the harvesting of trees from this forest. The County of Bomet engaged us just last year to purposely plant some 2,000 trees. Otherwise, the largest part of this Government forest has not been planted even with a single tree, up to today. The forest guards in that particular area are hiring the land for grazing, which has even made it worse. It is so interesting, and they do not even issue permits for the people who are grazing in the Government land. You just give them money, which does not reach anywhere, and they allow people to graze therein. Therefore, there is a lot of mismanagement, misconception and misunderstanding of the forest issues in this country."
