• 22 May 2013 in Senate: I thank my colleague for informing me. But there are two items that he needs to know; compensation for the land where the water sits is as current as anytime in future. If you have not paid for it, you pay at that time. There may be an argument where you are saying that the water has been used and not paid for. As I mention this, there may be need for my colleague, Sen. Wetangula, to start thinking of the water he is getting from West Pokot County. There is water you are getting from the Kapolet Forest.

• 21 May 2013 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.
