    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, this morning, the Senate Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights together with the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations, were supposed to meet the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Co-ordination of National Government and the Cabinet Secretary for Lands and Physical Planning. It will surprise you that they did not come. They sent their juniors who were shown the door. I raise this because part of the Petition by Sen. Khaniri was supposed to be heard today. I also raise this issue because at some point, we want a ruling. We are working in vain and we are getting tired of your directions being violated by cabinet secretaries. This is not the only one. The same thing has happened to the one before Sen. Sakaja’s Committee. Our work is getting extremely frustrating. However, we thank Sen. Khaniri for the industry he has put in on the boundary issue. It is the motivation that made me move that Bill four times. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are aware that the National Assembly leadership has called us for a meeting to deliberate on Bills that are pending on both sides. If there is one Bill that will cement the legacy of this Senate, it is the County Boundaries Bill. It will resolve all the problems that are in Meru, Isiolo, Vihiga, Taita/Taveta and Kisii counties and many other places. It will provide a formula for people to sit down and find a solution to their problems without fighting. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in your things to do, please, write down the County Boundaries Bill and put all of us in priority. I think this is part of your legacy too. God willing, when the people of Bungoma County elect you as their Governor, you will wave the County Boundaries Act, if something arises in Bungoma County."
