    "content": " Hon. Speaker, you know I have listened keenly to the response from the very able Chair of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs – who is also my friend - Hon. Tongoyo. However, I have been left wondering. This House, under Article 95 of the Constitution, is mandated to resolve issues that concern the people. From the way I have deciphered, that issue is serious. It is an issue that can potentially evolve into a bigger problem if not addressed with the seriousness that it deserves. It is an issue concerning three large communities - the Kuria, the Kipsigis and the Maasai. Will I be in order to suggest that, perhaps, this issue goes beyond the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs of my friend, Hon. Tongoyo, and perhaps – with your guidance – we set up a mechanism, be it a committee or a tribunal to address that conflict expeditiously? Otherwise, history might judge this House harshly for starting a matter which could have been resolved and yet, we left it to snowball into something unmanageable. That is my take."
