    "content": "Let me go to the Statement by Sen. Ndwiga. I want to thank the Committee because we can hear the concerns from what they have gotten and they have given us a way forward. What is alarming is that the areas in which these locusts are now breeding; Samburu North, Baragoi, Baringo, Tiaty and Kapedo, I do not know whether it is fortunate, I had the privilege of leading a team from both the National Assembly and the Senate in the last Parliament when there were high cases of insecurity. Those are areas that even the security forces are afraid of accessing. The Committee should let us know what is being done to make sure that that new breeding ground is either fully sprayed, not just aerial but something is being done there. These are areas that are safer even as we protect them. The locusts that come from Baragoi, Kapedo, Tiaty, Nginyang and Loruk do not know that they are in a hardship area. They will still come to our farms in areas that are peaceful. Apart from that, we just extend further support to the Committee to make sure that they truly get to the bottom of this matter because, just as Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has said, this is an impending disaster if not well managed. Thank you."
