    "content": "Thank you. Madam Deputy Speaker. I have heard the opportunity of using the Airport at Wajir, when I used to travel from Mandera. They have thorough security checks there. At that time, there were even flights from outside the country, which passed through there. Now, these are local flights which originate from Wajir to Wilson and back. Much as it is a security issue, there should be equal treatment among Kenyans and must be seen to be done. When someone boards a plane from Wajir, the next landing point is Wilson. Since that person has not done anything mid-air, what this other extra check that Kenyans are subjected to? This is what creates discrimination in Kenyans. We have been talking of marginalisation and this is how it creeps into the minds of Kenyans. When one is treated differently just because they boarded a plane from a particular part of this country, which has enough security checks being done--- In any case, the best security check should be done at the point of boarding the plane and not when one is landing. What is this that is different that somebody from Wajir can do mid-air so as to be checked again? The Committee needs to get proper answers, so that Kenyans can feel they are being treated equally irrespective of where they come from."
