    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Like my colleagues have said, this is a matter that we should not take lightly, in the light of what the senior Member of this House, Sen. Haji, has confessed here, all of us here can attest to the work that Sen. Haji has really been doing in this House. He is more committed than most of the other Chairmen, to the extent that we need to acknowledge the magnitude of the problem that we have at hand. The relevant officers really need to take their work seriously. They are very busy creating new titles for themselves on the ground; moving from District Commissioners to County Commissioners and so on. When it comes to anything that touches on their welfare, they are very quick to deal with it rather than security issues. No day passes without a Member here raising an issue of insecurity in the country. The same applies to the National Assembly and county assemblies. I think that we need to stand by the Chairman of this Committee. Although we are going to meet again on Tuesday, we do not know what effect insecurity can cause between now and then. Therefore, they can be summoned to appear before the Committee so that by the time we meet next week, we will have seen the seriousness of that office. Alternatively, they should quit if they are not able to perform."
