    "content": "Nyangoma Police Station. It is of great concern that this trend has led to loss of lives and properties particularly those belonging to business women and men, and to mention a few, Mrs. Elizabeth Abuonji and Mrs. Caroline Akuka among others. The latest attack happened on 29th April, 2021, where two-night guards, namely, Mr. Justus Etiang and Mr. Kennedy Eworet were brutally murdered at night by thugs. On this occasion, two shops belonging to Mr. Fredrick Oiye and Mr. Ndolo Jangiya were broken into and goods of unknown amount stolen. Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is on this background that I seek a statement from the Chairperson, Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security to the following: (i) Could the Chairperson state whether any investigations have been carried out into the persistent insecurity and theft of goods and breaking into shops at Dond Koki Market in Alego Usonga Constituency that has led to brutal killings of several security guards employed by traders and businessmen in the area? (ii) When will the culprits be apprehended and what measures have been put in place by the Government to curb insecurity in the said area and ensure that the security officers work with the community to help them identify the criminals terrorizing the community? (iii) Could the Government consider enhancing security personnel at Karemo Assistant County Commissioners’ office, which is the nearer police base and ensure the officers embark on night patrol? (iv) Could the Chairperson explain whether there is any role played by the local administration officers in these insecurity incidents in the area such as the assistant chief and the chief of East Alego Usonga Sub-location, and if any, what action will be taken against the officers involved? Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
