    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to join my colleagues in offering condolences to the people of Turkana. These are Kenyans, and not foreigners. I appreciate the way everyone is expressing themselves here. These are my neighbours. We also share some disputes, but sometimes when such things happen, we come together because the same Government, which is giving us some problems, especially on the security side, had a thanksgiving service for peace on the 5th of January between the Pokot, the Turkana, the Marakwet and the Tugen in Baringo. However, just a few days later, issues arose and we lost lives from the very same communities that attended the thanksgiving service for peace. I want to sincerely say that we have a big, big problem with our security leadership in Kenya. Those in charge are not serious. I remember when I was a student during the time of the late President Kenyatta, we did not suffer the way we are suffering. When the late President Moi came to power, he brought a new type of operation because he was genuinely interested in people living together in peace as Kenyans. After that, the late President Kibaki came, and now, we face a big problem with security. I think it is because we have spent so much of our time and energy on politics, and now the people responsible for security are always moving with us, especially those in office."
