As we are aware, Kenya troops serving under the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) have so many years participated in the reconstruction, peace and security building in Somalia. Concerned that any diplomatic differences or instability in the region affects our country’s national security, I wish to obtain clarifications on a few issues emanating from this diplomatic matter. In light of the fact that the House is proceeding for a recess today and further in consideration that Standing Order No. 44(2)(c) empowers the Speaker to direct that a Statement on an issue raised be made on the same day, I wish to seek your indulgence that you direct my The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
