    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations regarding insecurity in Vihiga County. In the statement, the committee should address the following- (1) Explain the increasing crime rate in Vihiga County that includes murders, robberies, breakages and night attacks. (2) Outline the specific actions taken to address the insecurity situation and the status of the investigations into reported incidents at Luanda Market, Cheptulu, Majengo, Esibuye Markets and other areas within the county. (3) Apprise the Senate on the implementation status of the resolution agreed upon in the joint meeting between the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration and elected county leaders, including the Senator and the Governor that took place in January, 2023, with a view of addressing concerns around insecurity in the area. (4) State the steps being taken by the Ministry to empower and revamp community policing programmes in Vihiga County, noting that the programme has gradually been incapacitated due to lack of support from the national Government and internal wrangles within the security agencies in Vihiga County. Mr. Speaker, I have a second statement."
