Let me begin by thanking this House for being magnanimous enough and remembering the people of Arid and Semi- Arid Lands (ASALs) counties. I appreciate the former Governor, Sen. Ali Roba, for seeking this House to adjourn to discuss a matter, which unless we develop clear policies on how to deal with the drought, most of our population will be decimated.
