"content": "Kenya is a member of the United Nations, which has made several resolutions, among them the United Nations Security Resolution 1325 that gives mandate to every Government to develop an action plan on how to carry out issues of security and peace. This should involve women, children and the youth in trying to address issues of violence. Because of that, we want this nation, particularly the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security to be keen in issues of our security. We have lost many people. This is a serious matter that we are discussing. We, as a country, have always respected our neighbours. I do not know of any incidence where Kenyans have invaded any of our neighbouring countries. We always get malicious neighbours crossing to our country. The people who cross over, hit our people, take our animals and do all sort of things--- Our Government needs to engage the respective Governments of our neighbouring countries. We can understand Somalia, which does not have a Government, if we get a major problem from them. But countries that have stable Governments and security mechanisms within their borders, we need to engage with them properly. Losing that number of people in the course of a week or two is not acceptable. We are in a country which has a Government and security mechanism up to the grassroots. It is upon our Government to engage with the Governments of Ethiopia and others, so that we do not have to witness what we witnessed last week."
