    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the Government and I believe all of us, let me start by passing our condolences to the families that were affected in this very unfortunate incident and to ask the people within that area to just stay calm as we carry on the investigations that will lead to the sorting out of not just that incident but avoid a recurrence of any similar incidents in that area or indeed in any other section of this country. I would also want to assure the House and Kenyans that the security personnel are alert to these incidences and are doing whatever they can to avert similar issues. In terms of a more comprehensive Statement of what happened, that may well have to come next week. However, in terms of the issue of the expenses being on Monday, let me undertake to consult and we can see what can be done between now and Monday within the normal administrative structures with or without a Statement to Parliament. I believe that is the fairest thing so that we get a comprehensive Statement next week and then in terms of the funeral, I will undertake to consult with the Office of the President and we see what can be done to assist the situation."
