    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, yesterday, I said it is you and Parliament that will save the people of Kenya. It is also very shameful that on Tuesday, the Minister of State for Defence went to Garissa, saw two dead bodies killed by Kenya Defence Forces,15 injured, property looted, women raped and business burnt by KDF. It is shameful today that a Minister of Government under the new Constitution can stand in front of this House and give a Statement similar to the one given last night by Col. Oguna. After the Minister’s visit on Tuesday, tomorrow, the same Government is sending a delegation to Garissa led by none other than the Prime Minister. I do not know what the Prime Minister is going to do in Garissa if his own Minister can stand before this House and say that nobody was killed, no property was destroyed and no houses were burnt. Yesterday the same Minister was recorded in the HANSARD as saying that the Provincial Security Intelligence Committee and the District Security Intelligence Committee never gave instructions. The same Minister is saying that Kenya Defence Forces is a professional disciplined force. On the other hand, the same KDF acts spontaneously; that when one of their own is killed, they go amok and kill and loot. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to bring to the attention of this House that I am a living testimony of what happened in Garissa. The only other living testimony is the Minister of State for Defence who went there on Tuesday morning."
