    "content": "struggle and the 698 persons who were moved from Kericho and Nandi counties to Gwassi in 1934 as they were fighting for justice for this country. My community, the Taleks, will require an apology. If the President has apologised then that puts them in a good stead to move about. The fact that he has also called for restorative justice is good. The criminal justice system in this country may not provide answers to the various ills that have been committed in our nation. Therefore, we should look at restorative justice as an avenue through which we move ahead together as a people. It has worked in Rwanda and in many other countries. I support that we should go for restorative justice in our country. The President touched on insecurity. I only wish that he put more emphasis on the security situation in Mandera, Garissa, Tana River, Mombasa and Nairobi, so that this country becomes more secure. I also wish that the President would be more specific on the security situation in the North Rift region, where cattle rustling and banditry are going on. Finally, on the issue of national values, he has espoused what the Government needs to do. However, I want to join my colleagues in saying the EACC is not competent. For example, the dossier that was given to the President is dated 20th March, 2015. Some of the allegations contained in that dossier were reported to the EACC on the same day. EACC should not be garbage in, garbage out institution. It should have given the President live cases, so that the people of this country are able to say it has done a job. One of the commissioners of the EACC, Madam Onsongo, has resigned. I want to call upon Madam Keino to resign. Even Mr. Matemu should resign, so that the President is given a chance to appoint clean people, who can fight corruption in this country without fear or favour. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
