    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while the Assistant Minister’s response to my question as to why there is discriminate issuance of types of rifles in Tana River compared with the rest of the country is not convincing, I would like to say that the crime rate in Tana River has gone down since 2008, that is, with the advent of the Tenth Parliament. That is the time I came to Parliament. When pastoralists purchase guns, the initial intention usually is not to harm others, but to protect themselves because the Government has failed in its basic provision of security to these people. In 2008 and 2009, we helped in voluntary disarmament of the residents of Tana River District with a promise that the Provincial Administration would supply the KPR guns to guard the villagers who were disarmed. This is because we only have three police stations in the whole of Bura Constituency. The Government has failed to honour that pledge. When will the Ministry recruit the KPRs in the villages where people were disarmed on the promise that it would provide KPRs?"
