    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. There are two things that I want to respond to. We have been told by the immediate speaker that Al Shabaab has announced--- In this day of technology when somebody puts in a twitter account any message, you cannot take it for granted that it is actually Al Shabaab who are posting that. Al Shabaab has not made any announcement either by video or audio. So we cannot rule out the Government’s--- If the buck stops with the Government, then the Government of the day with the President at the top is saying that there are other people who are involved in this matter. So, we cannot have it both ways. You cannot say the Government must investigate but when it says, yes, we have information that some other people are involved, you cannot turn around and say that it is not true. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the second issue I want to talk about is that we are trivializing this matter. If anyone has trivialized this matter, it is our colleagues who are sitting across. It is the leadership of the Opposition of the CORD minority party in this country. In the last two weeks, they have trivialized the issue of security to the point where now children are playing with the word “bomb” “bomb” “bomb” in the streets. Is that worse than what has happened today? No. You have trivialized this matter, you have said there 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."
