"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, we must accept that this is not a lecture hall or an academic class. Therefore, the use of parables or semantics does not change the facts on the Floor of this House. I am a neighbour. In fact my own home is less than 15 kilometres from the centre where Mr. Ruto is talking about. The core functions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is to protect, project and promote the image of Kenya. It is not fair that this House is being misled on two grounds. You have heard the Minister for Foreign Affairs talk about Prof. Saitoti, Mr. Kajwang and Mr. Munyes. It is on record that these very Ministers who are being mentioned did not visit the area. Mr. Kajwang could not visit one of the aggression centres between Kenya and Southern Sudan border. Even Prof. Saitoti could not do the same. When Mr. Munyes attempted to do the same, he was branded an espionage. Is it in order for the Minister for Foreign Affairs, even when he does not have the facts, to take this House for granted and mislead everybody when we know that the incursions by the Ethiopian security elements in northern Kenya have been there since time immemorial and the Government has failed to take any decisive action?"
