    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is also important to recognize the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) administration that came to the assistance of the affected victims. Notable is Dr. Simon Monda who led a high powered doctors’ team to address the crisis affecting those victims. We note that there are some other critically injured Kenyans who are admitted in hospital. We also, in addition, ask the Minister to make sure that the bills incurred will be met by the Government. It is high time that security organs in this country woke up to the reality. That is because within the last four months, we have had some Kenyans who were brutally murdered and their bodies dumped in Kinale Forest. Up to date, no investigations or real suspects have been apprehended. Where is the Government? What is the role of the Government in terms of protecting the lives of Kenyans? The image of this country is already tarnished; tainted by this callous attack at the “Machakos Airport”. Therefore, it is important that we try to reclaim this image. This House has already voted massive funds to the Department of Defence. What is the use of those funds that have been invested to protect the lives of Kenyans? It is, therefore, important that the Machakos Bus Station, which is the hub of transport in this country, is given a 24-hour security surveillance so that Kenyans and transporters can move about in their daily activities without any fear. To increase the number of tourists in this country, we need to enhance our security."
