    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion by Sen. Wambua. This is a matter of national importance. We have been seeing the insecurity in Kitui and all other counties. In Kitui County, insecurity is because of the camel herders who have moved into peoples’ lands and have had complete disregard of lives and property in those areas. I rise to say that the residents of Kitui and all other counties deserve to be given protection by the police force. There is drought which has also escalated insecurity. I know that there is livestock from Kajiado County that is in Kitui County right now. We are sensitive that we are moving into peoples’ lands. Our people are requesting a good stay from the locals in that place and they had been allowed to graze. We urge the camel herders to do the same. The insecurity is not only localized in Kitui County, but it is all over the country. I was with the Hon. Member of Laikipia North over lunch hour. She informed that she is hosting 200 women who are internally displaced because of insecurity. I was with hon. Naisula Lesuuda of Samburu West Constituency. They are crying of insecurity. The NPS must wake up because they are sleeping on the job. This is not about the transition in Government. Hon. Senators from the minority side must desist from politicizing this matter because it is not politics. There is insecurity in urban centres like Nairobi, Kitengela and Rongai. The NPS must wake up. They are not personnel from Kenya Kwanza coalition. Kenyans must wake up to do their jobs. The police must protect the citizenry and be held accountable. The insecurity is not caused by Kenya Kwanza Coalition Government. Insecurity has been there even the other day when we had His Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta as the President. This is not a political issue and must not be politicised. It is important that Kenyans are protected on all fronts, in towns and rural areas. Thank you."
