    "content": "Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No. 33(1), I seek leave of the House for the purpose of discussing increased cases of insecurity across the country and especially in arid and semi-arid areas, that has been occasioned by cattle rustling. Hon. Speaker, increased cases of insecurity has led to loss of lives and livestock, and displacement of hundreds of people in the country. Cattle rustling continues to be a key contributor to insecurity in the larger Kerio Valley Region between the Pokots and the Marakwets communities. Those attacks have negatively impacted on the socio-economic activities in the region and have affected learning as teachers and school children have been forced to flee to safer areas. The ongoing mass voter registration has also been affected and, thereby, denying the residents of Marakwet West and East of their political rights as provided for under Article 38 of the Constitution. The Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government is seemingly unable to deal with the menace. I seek for the adjournment of the House in order to discuss this matter of great national concern."
