"content": "Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.33(1), I seek leave of the House for the purpose of discussing the increased cases of insecurity across the country occasioned by cattle rustling. Hon. Speaker, in particular, cases of cattle rustling have been experienced in Kerio Valley between the Pokot and the Marakwet communities leading to loss of several lives, livestock and property. These retaliatory attacks have and continue to impact negatively on the socio-economic activities of the two communities. School-going children have not been spared either since they have been forced to flee to safer areas thereby disrupting learning in schools oblivious of the upcoming national examinations. Hon. Speaker, the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government is seemingly unable to deal with this menace. I, therefore, seek for the adjournment of the House in order to discuss this matter so as to chart the way forward on possible lasting solutions to this recurring problem. Thank you."
