    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank Members this afternoon. I was in Narok and I had to come because this matter is of great importance. I am the patron of the Pastoralists Parliamentary Group. Now that the amendment has been carried and we are back to the Motion as amended, I really want to urge Members to rise to the occasion so that we can handle the matter of insecurity in Mandera outside political partisanship of Marsabit and outside regional politics. Let us talk to each other and to the Government. Many people, since the Turbi Massacre of many years ago, when many lives were lost… Great leaders from the northern part of Kenya lost their lives as a result of the conflict in Marsabit. I am talking about great leaders like Dr. Bonaya Godana, my brother Sasura, and other public servants. If you do not come from Marsabit or that region, you will not understand what we are talking about. It is very sad that a matter as serious as this one of Marsabit is being played into partisan politics. It is very sad. This House is supposed to protect lives and property of every Kenyan, regardless of their societal status, or where they come from, or which religion they believe in. I really want to ask my good friends, namely, the Governor of Marsabit and the former Governor of Marsabit, who is currently the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Planning, to rise to the occasion as two great leaders. They have, in one way or the other, been part of the political leadership of Marsabit. Hon. Rasso is a man who has not seen peace since he became a Member of Parliament in 2013. The same with Hon. Chachu Ganya, who joined with me in the 10th Parliament with Hon. Millie Odhiambo.
