Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Mwembe Tayari market has historic and symbolic value to the people of Coast region. It embodies the commercial life of that region for the last one Century.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This Question is about shortage of water. This problem is not unique to Marafa Division alone. In fact, it is a serious problem facing the whole country. Ironically, some parts of this country, including Budalangi, where the Assistant Minister comes from are occasionally ravaged by floods. What steps has the Assistant Minister taken to ensure that flood water that ravages this country is harvested, so that we do not experience further shortage of water?

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this debate. First, I wish to associate myself with the concerns of His Excellency the President for addressing various national issues worrying Kenyans as captured in his Address to this House. However, it is important for us to note that it is necessary for the Government to walk the talk. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, listening to His Excellency the President when he opened this Session, he did, among other things, re-emphasise what appears to have become hackneyed platitudes. Anybody who has listened to His ...
