    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point of order to request for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security in the Office of the President, regarding the Mungiki menace. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenyans were just about to experience a sigh of relief after the formation of the Grand Coalition Government. That is because business, from the beginning of the year, was disrupted by other things. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, right now, Kenyans are not going to work in about five major towns, plus the Metropolitan City of this country. People are commuting to work because buses are being burnt and people are being killed! Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we want the Minister to tell this House how a group like Mungiki can hold the country hostage, while there is security presence. How come they were caught flat- footed? What is the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security in the Office of the President going to do to ensure that Kenyans will continue with their businesses uninterrupted? The security of Kenyans is of foremost importance and the primary responsibility of any Government is to ensure the security of its citizens. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
