    "content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek clarification from the Leader of the Majority Party. First, I sympathize with him because of what happened recently. The community, I share with him 50 per cent and the faith I share with him 100 per cent. To be associated with pigs is extremely bad. So, he needs to go to Mecca. Secondly, I wish to seek clarification with regard to the reforms that were supposed to be done in the security sector in our country. The new Constitution created a lot of institutions like the National Police Service Commission and the Police Oversight Authority, but it seems like none of them is functioning. It looks like they are colliding with each other, namely, the Inspector-General of Police is fighting the National Police Service and vice versa. Security is very important in this country. There has been a lot of insecurity in the last two months. It seems like the Jubilee Government is unable to handle the situation. Up to now, they do not have a substantive Cabinet Secretary in charge of security and this shows how naĂŻve they are when it comes to security matters. Two, if you have been in this country for some time, you are aware that the occurrence of insecurity incidents in Mandera has been very high. It has been happening every time. What pro-active measures is the Government putting in place to solve the problem of insecurity? Instead of flying there in choppers every time people are massacred, why can they not act early enough, so that people are not slaughtered and you do not only go to console with the bereaved families? We need to have pro-active measures in place. Parading the leaders from that region on television every time people are massacred there is not enough. We need to seriously deal with insecurity. I am very grateful for what the Deputy President has done, but he cannot handle security matters alone. We need to have a substantive Cabinet Secretary in charge of security. The Deputy President has a lot of engagements, he started shuttle diplomacy and he has engagements all the way to The Hague."
