"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while thanking the Chairperson for attempting to come and respond to that Question, it looks like we are not taking the safety or the lives of the people of Kenya and their property seriously. Just imagine Government officers are murdered and no attempt is made to retrieve even one single bullet from the people who carried out this heinous crime. The department in charge of the interior security of the people of Kenya is completely unable to arrest the situation. The only one honorable thing these officers must do is to resign. They must go. These are the officers who are in charge in this department to keep peace and order, who must be the CS and the people below him. As the Senator sought answers from the Chairperson, he said that nobody in Turkana and Samburu counties are on talking terms. You see an enemy on the spot and war begins. Now, that forces other people to go and arm themselves. So, I think the Chairperson needs to sit down seriously and tell us how this can be addressed. He went further to say in his answers that the amnesty was ignored. What steps did the Government take when the amnesty was ignored by simple citizens? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am still waiting for an answer he is supposed to give me, why Kenyans in my county were killed the other day by a few bandits from Turkana, and nothing has happened. It looks like the weapons we are saying should be returned are now being used to kill people indiscriminately. Let him come and explain properly what needs to be done; if they are unable to just tell the Senate that the department is completely unable, then Parliament can prescribe further medicine for them."
