    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a situation where one county decides to sabotage another county government, in ensuring it does not develop. They sabotage construction work and they stop them from bringing education to their people, fixing roads and killing reservists. We have lost over 30 reservists in Turkana; as I speak, yesterday, we lost two. The head of the reservist in Kainuk was killed and in a place called Kakong, we lost another young reservist. For some of these places, I know it is a land issue; for example, a place like Lokori which is over 60 kilometres away from the border is still being affected by these cattle rustlers. So, what action is the Government going to take to ensure that the Turkana County Government is supported in ensuring that they develop and implement their budgets, which are being affected by West Pokot? We cannot fix our roads, we cannot do construction of schools and we cannot do farming. I remember last month when they harvested all the crops along River Turkwel and brought their donkeys to carry the produce from the Turkana Side. What action is the Government going to take to stop this intended sabotage against the Turkana?"
