9 Oct 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a problem of insecurity in Chesuman and Arror locations in Marakwet. When there is peace, like now, the community wants to take advantage of that peace and cultivate some crops to reduce starvation in the area. Does the Ministry have any plans to compensate these people, especially those who are in the most affected areas, as they preserve and keep these animals in the area?

Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to commend my colleagues who have contributed to this very important Motion. As I said earlier, this forest is a very important forest. About 15 years ago when a study was carried out, 128,600 hectares of indigenous trees existed in Cherangany Hills. About 12,875 hectares of forest plantation also existed then. As I speak, if we conducted another study in the same place, we would find that this forest has been brought down drastically. This calls for immediate action from the Government to save this important forest. Mr. Deputy Speaker, ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute on this very important Motion. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, malaria is a vector borne disease, as well as a water borne disease. As previous speakers said, it is one of the killer diseases in Kenya. I want to say that this problem has spread to other places. Most countries in Asia, as we speak today, have tried to control the spread of malaria. After Independence, many countries knew that malaria was one of the major killer diseases. They used all their resources to control malaria. ...
