The Chair has talked of Government having difficulties in knowing who are the bona fide Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). How can the Government say that? This approach to such a national crisis adds more frustration, pain and more differences amongst communities because of the Government’s inability to sort out the problem. In 2008, at 10.00am in Eldoret, Rev. Liyayi was pulled out of the house and butchered. His wife came to Ichina village, Shivakala Sub-location, Shirumba Location, Ikolomani North, Kakamega South District in Kakamega County and for the last seven years, she has been a burden to us. Personally, I have educated her son from Form One up to Form Four and yet the only assistance the Government gave her was Kshs10, 000. The Statement should inform us how this widow will receive her Kshs400, 000. The second clarification is; purely out of pride, dignity and self-respect, people from my community could not sit and see their relatives living in polythene papers and because they want to lock our people out of the pie of Kshs15 billion, they have now created a new English phrase called “integrated IDPs”. We speak very good English and we know that it is the creation of your own minds. There is no phrase like integrated IDPs in the dictionary, hakuna!"}
