    "content": "Why do you fail and you continue sitting there? This country is burning. Which investors are going to come to Nairobi tomorrow? Which investor will go to Kirinyaga, Nyeri, and Mandera or to Marsabit? I think this matter must be taken seriously. We cannot allow the lives of Kenyans to be at stake because of one or two people whom we cannot raise the issue with. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the second thing I want to mention is about the leadership. I agree with Sen. Lesuuda and others that the leadership needs to do their best to contain the situation. I am also glad that the Senator who moved the Motion has said that they have done a lot in terms of bringing people together. They have brought Members of Parliament from that area together. I know that religious leaders have been meeting here in Jamia Mosque on this matter of Marsabit. But I think it is important that the matter raised here by Sen. Orengo about politics, about complicity by people in Government, be also addressed. I think after elections, the Government should appreciate that politics should not be the factor in matters regarding security. Whether they elected this Government or not, all Kenyans have a right to security. That is the way it is in the Constitution. We are all taxpayers. So, I think once you start such fires of insecurity; that a certain county starts burning from there, before you know what is happening, Nairobi County will also be on fire. These matters should be taken The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
