    "content": "(Mr. Ojode): Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that a joint District Security Committee (DSC) sat on 13th December, 2011 to review progress and chat the way forward towards recovery of camels stolen from the Gabra community by rustlers from the Samburu Community at Chari Hashe in Kalacha Location of Maikona Division. These resolutions aimed at the recovery of the said animals and efforts to implement the resolutions are ongoing. (b) I am not aware of tension between Gabra and Samburu Communities. However, during the time the joint DSC sat there were rumours of tensions and threats of retaliation, especially in Arapal, Olturot and Kurgum which is known as Karbi. The joint DSC has been able to contain the situation so far. A total of 173 camels have already been recovered and efforts to recover the remaining are on. During the joint DSC of 13th December, 2011, it was also resolved that the Loiyangalani DSC liaises with Samburu elders from Arapal, where most of the suspected raiders came from and ensure recovery of the remaining number of camels. It is also important to appreciate here that when the animals were reported stolen, police headquarters deployed a helicopter to help trace the animals for two good days. The major challenge that the recovery efforts by joint security personnel faced was the impassibility of the roads as the area had experienced heavy rains. To forestall future incidences of this nature, both foot and mobile patrols have so far been intensified."
