    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to join the rest of my colleagues to comment on the security issue in Laikipia County. I also thank Sen. Kinyua for bringing this timely Statement on the Floor of the House. Security is paramount and I am shocked insecurity in Laikipia County has been going on for two weeks now. The Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations let us down as well as the people of Laikipia County and Kenyans. They should be at the forefront of this matter and not wait for Sen. Kinyua to bring a Statement, two weeks after this happened. People have lost lives and others have been displaced from their houses. They are now sleeping on the streets and some are accommodated in churches. Madam Deputy Speaker, I have not seen the Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations at the forefront fighting for this. My message to the Inspector-General (IG) of Police, the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government and the County Commissioner is that it seems their priorities are misplaced. It looks like they are doing some other work that politicians are supposed to do. They politicize everything. They should leave politics to politicians. They were appointed to those offices to protect the security of this country and everyone. Article 29 of the Constitution says that everyone has the right to freedom and security."
