"content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. For the purpose of record, I want to state that it is now three months and two weeks since I requested for the Statement. Indeed, yesterday you directed the Leader of Majority Party to bring a Statement to this House today. It was only a few minutes while we were seated here that the Chair of the Committee came to me and told me that he has not been able to get an appropriate answer from the ground. Hon. Speaker, I want to say this: Since I requested for this statement, ten people from my constituency have died under the hands of bandits. Between the time I requested for the Statement and today, we have lost six people. The latest was on Friday when three people were met in a shopping centre by the bandits and shot in broad daylight. As I speak here, I have received information from nearby schools. Before the House convened this afternoon, I got information that out of 213 students of a neighbouring school, the headmaster cannot account for 70 students. This shows the gravity and the seriousness of the matter. If between today and Tuesday, the same bandits attack and something goes haywire, it will be very difficult for anybody within the Government to give any justification, whether it is by negligence or design. I want to tell the country that when that incident happened at around 3.00 p.m. on Friday, I left Nairobi and joined the County Director, the OCPD and many other people and we converged there. I personally slept in that area. That place is called Leluni in Malalani Location of Kitui East Constituency."
