Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to give my two brief comments on the two petitions if you allow me. I will start with the one submitted by Hon. Theuri, Member for Embakasi West. This issue of betting and gambling is a problem in this country, especially to the young people. As much as I support what my colleague is alluding to, unless this sector is controlled our youth will get into problems.

Opiyo Wandayi, who are also doing equally well in the committees that they chair so that Kenyans can judge us objectively?

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also want to comment on this Petition. Most of the areas in Kenya are dry. Almost two-thirds of the Kenyan land mass is dry. As we ask the national Government to build those boreholes, Turkana County receives the highest amount of money from Parliament through the county government.
