"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 the rising cases of insecurity in Eastleigh in Nairobi County. Security is a critical component of the national political and development agenda. Crime and violence are increasingly recognized as significant development challenges, particularly in urban areas. Incidents of crime, robbery, gang violence and gender-based domestic violence undermine both macroeconomic and microeconomic growth, hinder productivity and negatively affect societal and individual well-being. In recent weeks, several incidents of crime have been reported in the area. However, my attention has been drawn to the most recent case, a viral CCTV footage capturing the moment when a young man identified as Abdrahim Ibrahim was shot and killed by an unknown assailant early Saturday morning on 10th November this year. In the statement, the committee should- (1) Conduct an inquiry into the rise in insecurity within Nairobi County, particularly in Eastleigh and assess any emerging patterns that may help identify the root causes behind these criminal activities. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
