The kind of killings that are taking place calls upon all of us to look at it seriously because this is not for the benefit of anybody and the Government is not enjoying seeing the people suffering. I also come from a region which is sometimes affected by cattle rustling. The moment we dwell on lamentations and blame game, it will never sort us out.

We should not give conditions and start saying that so and so must go.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I brought a Motion here about enhancing roles of Wazee"
