    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join my colleague in welcoming our former colleague to this place. Thank you for coming. I am speaking and, in a way, raising a complaint as I ask this question. Is there a framework for invoking formal involvement of the military in civilian affairs? I ask this because it has been like the Cabinet Secretary, whether him or the previous administration, tended to favour Nairobi. We know that when the military gets involved, they do very good work. However, is there a way we can invoke them? Right now, the Cabinet Secretary is my neighbour in Garissa-Tana River County. Between Madogo and the County of Garissa, that bridge in the highway has been mismanaged by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA). Why can the Cabinet Secretary not invoke his office to bring in the military to solve that problem? I am asking him if there is a way he can come in there. On the other side, between Tana River and Lamu, KeNHA has not done a good job on that road too. We know if the military comes in, they will resolve those problems. Both problems happened when the infrastructure was destroyed during the flooding. Is there a way that they can also distribute the military to help us in some of our counties and not just favour particular counties?"
