"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The fact of the matter is that disarmament will not succeed until we disarm everybody and patrol the borders. We feel shortchanged in the whole exercise. We were promised the Kenya Police Reserve (KPR), but we were instead given guns that cannot fire. They cannot fire because they have no bullets and they are not manufactured any more. Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the Assistant Minister aware that by moving to the next stage, indeed, we will be opening trade in small arms? We have plenty of small arms in the neighbouring countries. Is he aware that by going into the next stage, we will have to go into forceful disarmament? What will the Assistant Minister do to replace the 500 rifles which cannot fire and had been given to our home guards? There was also Kshs8.3 million which was supposed to train the KPR to protect the community? How much of that money was used and was there any training that took place?"
