I want all Hon. Members of Parliament to plant more than 1000 trees. The President himself must plant over 10 million and his Deputy President 5 million. His Excellency the ex- Prime Minister another 5 million trees. If we do that, we shall be number one in the world in protection of the environment. We have done that in my constituency. Since I value afforestation, I am in agreement with this amendment Bill. It will be the greatest way of addressing this perennial problem since Independence.

I heard the Hon. Member of Ijara talk about this noble and national function of census saying that in their areas, they are moving searching for pasture, water and food. I am urging every law-abiding citizen of this republic to avail themselves and be in their houses because census is a key exercise.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you are a great man and I want you, together with the leadership of this House, to provide a platform of unparalleled commitment, with utmost dedication in serving this country by not only putting sound policies, but also being practical.

This will ensure that we have an objective in anti-corruption issues. Otherwise, I support, but we do not want ...
