    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Leader of Government Business with regard to the massacre that rocked Ndoleri Division of Igembe North District on the morning of Friday 8th of June, 2002. Mr. Speaker, Sir, noting that these attacks were unleashed on the people of Ndoleri while a sleep by the raiders who are believed to have come from the Kina area in Isiolo South District, the Leader of Government Business should explain the cause of the brutal act that left seven people dead on the spot and another succumbed to gun injuries on 12th of June. I would want the Minister to confirm that these raiders, who did not carry anything with them, also killed four head of cattle. I would also wish the Minister to explain the action the Government is taking to track and apprehend the killers. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the Statement I would also want the Minister to explain the actions taken by the Government to avert a recurrence of similar attacks and\\ or avert any possible retaliatory attacks. I would also want the Minister to consider establishing a security camp at Kinandubaa area to enhance security in the region, and to confirm that the Government will extend some assistance to carter for the burial and other related expenses to the families of the bereaved. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would also want the Minister to confirm that the Government will recruit Kenya Police Reservists (KPR) in the community to enhance security. When giving the response, I would wish that the Minister takes cognizance of the fact that I had talked to the late Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security; I quickly rush to join the rest of the Members and the rest of Kenyans to mourn the Minister. He had promised to visit that area in my constituency today, 13th of June. He was to address these issues. Therefore, the Minister in his response should reassure my constituents that he will actually take up this issue the way the late Minister had planned to do. Thank you."
