    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to congratulate the Mover of the Motion because security is very important and a basic right of every individual. As leaders, we should intervene in issues that pertain to security because they are paramount and very important. Security is the number one responsibility of the Government. If the Government becomes partisan in any given situation, then we have a responsibility to go and find out the deep-rooted cause of the conflicts that we are witnessing within this particular farm. It has a long history and the cause of the conflicts have been cited as discrimination besides other reasons. Those historical issues are things that we need to go and find out and bring a report which is accurate and factual to this House so that this House can now move and give recommendations on the way forward. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, land is a very sensitive issue in our country. Being a very sensitive issue, we need to approach it with caution and carry ourselves in a manner that is very responsible so that when we go there we do not cause more problems but we get solutions and answers. It is important that the communities that live within that particular farm can co-exist in a very peaceful manner. In any conflict women and children are always the victims. We know in this particular farm, women and children have been victims. You can know what is happening by only looking at the lady District Officer who has suffered so much in the course of performing her duties. You sent responsible Kenyans to go and work for you and when they go on behalf of the country and the nation, they suffer. The rights of a young lady who has a lot of ambitions, who can be anything including the President of this nation have been violated. So, we need to go there, because of the rights of this lady and others that have been violated and find out the cause of the problem so that we can get a solution. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not want to repeat what a situation like this means with regard to the forthcoming elections. When this kind of violence continues, we become a worried society. We can see what is happening in our nation. Security is our first basic right as a nation. When we see the tension that is prevalent in the whole country then it is a problem that is waiting to get out of hand. I would like to"
