    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for directing the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs to inform the Cabinet Secretary to appear before us on the issue of insecurity. On the same issue, North Eastern, the Coast, and the Rift Valley form almost three-quarters of the landmass of this country. This is the part of the country that has been left to terrorists, bandits, cattle rustlers, and murderers. The answers we have been receiving from the Cabinet Secretary on insecurity are cosmetic, copy, and paste. For many years, whether you ask a question or make a statement, the response we get has been cosmetic in nature. This time, we have seen how the Government is fighting corruption and illicit brews in this country. We want the Government to have the same energy and strength to fight bandits, terrorists, and cattle rustlers. We cannot leave over three-quarters of this country to bandits and terrorists, because when you talk about the entire North Eastern region, there is no peace. Cattle rustlers are dominating the entire Rift Valley. The Al Shabaab has taken over the entire Coast Province. So, in which part of the country are we safe? Are we talking about Nairobi and a few other patches? We need to take the issue of insecurity very seriously."
