    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to contribute to the Statement on Insecurity in Samburu County. Coming from Samburu North, particularly Baragoi, every day I sit here and receive news that I have lost a relative or someone I know due to a banditry attack. Even worse, lately, the issue has escalated so much that we have criminal syndicates that are attacking shops within Baragoi and other town centres. I rose to speak to this because I had a pending Statement that I was told would not be processed. After all, it was similar to the Senator’s. As we speak, I have just received information that an attack is ongoing at Soit Pus in Poro, near Malaso. Malaso is one of our only tourist attraction centres or sites shared by Samburu West and Samburu North. It is saddening that, indeed, it has become so normalized for Samburus to lose their lives. Residents of Samburu could be killed like flies, and there is no substantial action being taken by the Government. I feel irritated because it makes us political leaders look helpless. We cannot come to the rescue of our people. It is about time the government tells us whether it can secure the residents of Samburu County or if they should take care of themselves. It is about time we are told clearly what we need to do. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and Audio Services,Senate."
