Elachi","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":13115,"legal_name":"Beatrice Elachi","slug":"beatrice-elachi"},"content":"Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was not holding brief since they are here. Let me remind the House that last year in this Senate we passed a Motion urging the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade to ensure they put up an institution in every Embassy; an institution to deal with issues like what is happening in South Sudan. At that time, we had a lot of hue and cry on the issue of domestic violence against workers in Saudi Arabia. I do not know what happened. I urge the chairpersons, as they answer this question, to go back and look at the Motion we passed. We have around 37,000 Kenyans working in South Sudan. We need a way of ensuring either we use the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) to go with buses and bring those Kenyans who want to come back home---. We have very serious investors who would want to stay and protect their own investments or wait for calm to return to the country in order to continue with their businesses. I hope we can use KDF with buses for just two days and bring back our brothers to this country."}
