    "content": "police a population of 245,000 Kenyans bordering the Republic of South Sudan and Uganda. It is a nightmare. From experience, I know that recruiting KPRs in those areas can help. So, this Motion is very timely. Therefore, I urge the hon. Members of this House to support it. One thing we should note is that KPRs are not only being used to tackle cattle rustling in those regions. They have, in fact, taken up the responsibilities that are carried out by regular police officers due to inadequate deployment of regular officers. They are charged with the responsibility of getting to terrains where regular security officers in those regions cannot access. As we have said here severally, cattle rustling activities are carried out by criminals, who must be dealt with in accordance with the law of this land. The challenge has been whether cattle rustlers are actually apprehended when they strike. So, if we are going to have teams of reservists that will be helping regular police officers and Administration Police officers in securing the properties and lives of Kenyans in those regions, we should be able to support that kind of initiative."
