    "content": " I thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also thank Hon. Kitur from Nandi. He has prosecuted that Question successfully. That is how we should move as a country. This country is one. I have two further clarifications to seek from the Cabinet Secretary. One, last week, a chief was killed in a place called Loruk. As we speak, Hon. Kamket is at the burial of that chief. I am certain that the Cabinet Secretary knows or has heard about it. I want him to clarify what is going on and whether anybody has been arrested. The allegation on the ground is that the chief was killed by NPRs from a neighbouring community. That might cause retaliation. That enclave is very insecure and sensitive. I am sure the Cabinet Secretary knows that. The people in Chemolingot want to listen to the Cabinet Secretary addressing the most current issue. Two, the issues of waiver of qualifications and chiefs being recruited from outside a location are related. That is why Hon. Kamket brought up that Question. The practice is rampant where we come from. No people may qualify to be chiefs or assistant chiefs in a sub- location. Applicants come from different locations but claim they come from the recruiting locations. When they get the job, they live in towns, leaving the locations unattended. The Cabinet Secretary should pay attention and know that the two issues are interlinked. I thank you. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
