"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also support this Motion. This issue has been with us for quite some time. We have lost many soldiers over the years. Members of the Al Shabaab could be from outside the country as well as from within the country. These are youths from all over Kenya. Recently, I was surprised to learn that some people who were arrested by military personnel as being part of the Al Shabaab come from Samburu. Sometimes we get information from the outside world that the Al Shabaab militia group is going to carry out an attack. Our military intelligence needs to be empowered because these guys hit us from within the country. We lost many people in Lamu. The current situation there is pathetic. People are not sleeping. Yesterday, I watched news on television and I saw that people get really worried at night and go to sleep within school compounds. It is important that we discuss these issues because if Lamu is not safe, nobody is safe. The Government should come out strongly and deal with the Al Shabaab menace. It is important that we support the Government military personnel, so that we can have peace within our country. With those remarks, I support."
