"content": "Somalis because they are being mistaken and being looked at suspiciously. We must take this bull by its horns. As I conclude, let it be clear to my colleagues about my fear of having a captured state; that when there was instability in Zimbabwe, the citizens of that went to Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. Today in those countries, they do not know what to do with those Zimbabweans. It has become so complex. The consequence is that the peaceful people of South Africa---- Some genuine immigrants from Zimbabwe were subjected to extreme violence when the native South Africans resisted them. So, if we do not address it now, those who feel they are native Kenyans will then visit violence on other immigrants who might be legal at that time. Waswahili husema kwamba mtego wa panyahushika waliomo na wasiokuwemo . So, when this violence will start, the big and small rats will all be swept away. It is this that makes me ask all of us to appreciate that, if we sit on our laurels, we will be breeding a fertile ground for drug trafficking, illicit trade in counter-feit goods, trafficking in wildlife products and so on. In fact, some say today that the poaching that we are seeing today is because of this apparent insecurity. Who are we to refuse to speak to this issue when we know the economic consequences of killing all our elephants? We would be breeding a fertile ground for human trafficking and smuggling. You all remember that hon. Millie Odhiambo-Mabona came up with the anti-human trafficking law in the last Parliament and we passed it. It is because at that time, already, legislators had spotted the problem. There is also the issue of small arms trafficking. I do not want to table those documents, but I have documents showing the increased volume in the trafficking of small arms into the country, as a result of these lapses at our border points, especially between Duble and Liboi. Finally, we should not allow our country to be a theatre for money laundering. Who does not know that in Nairobi today, civil servants could afford to sacrifice, get a loan of Kshs4 million or Kshs5 million and over a period of 25 years, they pay for a good house. But today, all property prices are so artificial. My party leader, hon. Mudavadi, was sharing with me the other day that property in Kenya in some instances is more expensive than what you find in places like New York."
