"content": "the law. We have been handling refugees using international laws. International relationships are reciprocal and countries reciprocate based on how you treat them. It is good to have our own law which conforms to international law and the African Union (AU) and the United Nations (UN) agreements. Clause 59 makes it an offence if a refugee disobeys the laws of the host country. Our own Constitution protects everybody, including refugees in the country. The moment a refugee is in Kenya, our laws apply and so the refugeeās rights are protected by our Constitution. For that reason, I support this Bill. I support this law and thank Hon. Neto. I believe once this law comes to force, we will repatriate the refugees in a humane manner. We are supposed to treat them right and God will bless our nation."
