    "content": "There are standing issues, especially with regard to what has been happening in Somalia. Recently, there has been a crack down on alien Somalis in this country. In the process, many Kenyan Somalis were harassed. To date, Kenyan Somalis have a problem going about their normal day today routine activities in this country and yet, it is very easy for the Government to control the movement of Somalis at the border points. I host refugees in my Fafi Constituency. In fact, we have the largest refugee camp in Fafi Constituency. More than one and a half years, the people of Fafi gave a piece of land for the settlement of refugees that have been coming in since 2006. The Government has not done anything to ratify that gesture, so that the people who are coming into this country and pilling pressure on our villages around the refugee camps that exist can be settled properly. The NHCR has accepted this land. The County Council of Garissa has given out land. The local communities have given out land. However, up to date, the Government has not done anything. We crack down on innocent people when these people, because of lack of space in the regular camps that were provided more than two decades ago, overflow and come into the country. It is very important that the Government pays attention to this."
