"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I thank Hon. Neto for thinking about the rights of the people who are hurting and who are at their weakest point. As we appreciate the refugees and the support they need, I would like to include the IDPs in Kenya. This is because they are in the same status as refugees, and as a country, we need to treat our people well. We need to give them a better deal even as we want to give outsiders a better deal because you can only give what you have. We have IDPs in Kenya who are displaced from their places. In Kisii, we have very many IDPs. We have not gone out of our way, as a country, to support them and ensure that they are settled. It will be fair that we start from home. This is because even as we think of taking care of the refugees who come from other countries, charity begins at home. These refugees are going to live in our midst and if there are people who are not happy and think they have not been treated well, they cannot give the same love to these people who are going to come from other countries. I support."
