    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to thank Sen. Oketch Gicheru for bringing up this issue because this is a weighty matter that needs the attention of everybody in this country. Lately, Kenyans are experiencing a wave of murders, abductions and arbitrary arrests. Who is doing this kind of business? Is it the Government or the security agents? Kenyans have been kind. We are surrounded by many countries that have a lot of security issues and fallen governments, and many people have found their way to Kenya. They are able to access our identity cards, passports and own properties, and nobody has even vetted this guy. We have criminals, money launderers, murderers and rapists coming to this country. Therefore, we are not safe. I want, first and foremost, to condole with all Kenyans who lost their loved ones, especially the family of Dawit and the kids. They have Daud and her children. The last time when there were demonstrations, many Kenyans lost their lives. To date, they have not been accounted for. So many young men and women who just wanted to demonstrate lost their lives. They have not been accounted for. I do not know where they have been held or if they are dead. I have lost one elected MCA, the Minority leader of the Wajir County Assembly. To date, there is no communication. The last time we rushed to Wajir, we were told that the body was found. His body was mutilated. You know you kill somebody, and then you start cutting the body into pieces; it does not make sense. Even the criminal has to be listened to; the criminal has a right to be represented and a right to be taken before court. Even the ladies in Eastleigh, their bodies were mutilated. The young girl was raped, and the limbs were cut.
