    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Pursuant to Standing Order No.44 (2)(c), I wish to request for a Statement from the Leader of Majority Party regarding the planned eviction and attack of three hon. Members of Parliament; the hon. Joseph Samal Lomwa of Isiolo North, the hon. Christopher Nakuleu and the hon. Protus Akujah, MP for Loima, from Samburu County on 30th November, 2013 by police officers. Hon. Speaker, the County Commandant of Samburu and his officers visited the hotel where the hon. Members were residing and ordered them to move from the hotel and be escorted out of Samburu County at midnight. In the Statement, the Leader of Majority Party should inquire into and report on:- (i) reasons and intentions of attack and eviction of the three Members of Parliament from Maralal Town and out of Samburu County late in the night; (ii) the identity of leaders who participated in the meeting at the Yale Restaurant in Maralal Town who were alleged to be the major perpetrators of violence between the Samburus and Turkanas and, who planned that day’s midnight eviction; (iii) action taken by the Government on the alleged public incitement of Samburus against the Turkana community as witnessed in various forums; (iv) the action taken by the Government to ensure that business people from Turkana Community and their businesses are protected; and (v) measures taken by the Government to restore peace in Maralal Town following the deliberate and systematic targeting and killing of people from Turkana community, especially from Loikas, Suguta-Marmar as well as Baragoi. Hon. Speaker, this Statement was sought in November last year and the response was not submitted. Therefore, I was forced to re-submit it. Thank you."
