"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Adjournment Motion brought to the House by Hon. Sankok on insecurity in Laikipia. Insecurity is not only in Laikipia but in the entire country. It is important to note that there is a ravaging drought in this country right now in addition to the more challenging security situation in pastoral areas like Laikipia. We need a more decisive action on this considering the importance of Laikipia as a rich agricultural county. It is also a serious tourist circuit of this nation. So, the security apparatus of this country should never tolerate any form of insecurity whatsoever within Laikipia County because of its importance in terms of the economy of this country. I think we need to address where the issues exist squarely and how the responsibility of security rests upon the State. The Constitution of this country allows security apparatus to ensure that property and lives are protected. At this age of civilisation in this country, we should not be having matters of cattle rustling and insecurity of whatever nature. If it is the land question around the elections time, there is the Ndung’u Land Commission Report that should address historical injustices about land and compensation. Has the Government put it on the shelves and ignored it? If the historical land injustices are one of the causal factors they must be addressed."
