    "content": " Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security regarding the death of Mr Yusuf Ali Abdi following the collapse of the demolished building in Mombasa. On 8th April 2025, the County Government of Mombasa announced plans to carry out controlled demolition of a structure located on Plot No.XLVI/195/MI in Mombasa County following its partial collapse. On 9th April 2025, a multi-agency team led by the Kenya Defence Forces was deployed to the coastal city through a Gazette Notice issued on 7th April 2025 to carry out the controlled demolition. Sadly, Mr Yusuf Ali Abdi was found dead having been apparently trapped inside the building during its partial collapse. It is against this background that I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security regarding the following: 1. Report on the measures being taken by the Government to support the family of the late Mr Yusuf Ali Abdi who died while apparently trapped inside the collapsed building located on Plot No. XLVI/195/MI. 2. Provide a status report on the investigations into the collapse of the building and subsequent death of Mr Yusuf Ali Abdi. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
