Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the reason my brother from Kiambu County and I are concerned is that Karura Forest is at the heart of the people of Nairobi and Kiambu counties. So, what is the communication policy? Do you wait until Twitter tells us that there is logging going on in Karura Forest before you give a statement? Why can you not tell us early? These trees do not mature overnight. I am sure the Forest Department knows how long it takes a tree to mature and when it will be due for harvesting. Why can you not tell us in advance instead of waiting for Twitter to tell us that trees are being felled and then you come and say, “oh, that is us.”"

In Laikipia County, for example, at a place called Kauka, the then Cabinet Secretary, Hon. Njeru, planted trees. However, as I speak now, there is no single tree at that place because the elephants went there and destroyed everything. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

Also, when we talk about planting trees, how many have we planted? It is not even how many trees we have planted. It is how many have survived? Every time we talk about planting trees, but we do not know how many have survived. Every time, we are told trees are planted and there is a day set for planting trees. Is it planting trees, or is it the number of trees that have survived?"

Fatuma Dullo, you may proceed."

Previously, Mathenge was introduced more specifically to Northern Kenya to control desertification. However, this plant is causing a lot of havoc in many parts of Northern Kenya. I have repeated this question even in the last Senate because the communities living in those areas are even unable to graze their animals because of the Mathenge. Secondly, the communities have requested the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry to allow them to burn charcoal from those plants so that at least they can control the Mathenge from growing."
