• 8 May 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the first place, I feel that the question is misplaced. The operation that is going on in Mt.

• 19 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am, indeed, very happy that the Government has now come out very clearly and stated that the water of Tana River does not belong to any community, nor does it belong to Mt. Kenya where it flows from. It is water for the country and, therefore, a natural resource.
