    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Cattle rustling has been described as barbaric, primitive and a criminal offence because lives are lost. Not only are lives lost, but property and homes are burnt during that process, children, women and men are killed, animals get lost and families get poorer and poorer because it has effect on their economy. Therefore, for that reason, the Government has the responsibility to take care of its citizens. All over the world, the Government is responsible for taking care of its citizens by providing security and ensuring that they are safe. Over the years, this has never happened. What has happened to the Jubilee Government that promised security? Are they seeing that they are failing? Are they admitting that they have lost the game? It is high time that the Government owned up because they have owned up in other areas where they have failed to succeed in doing what they set out to do. My proposal is that in those areas where there is cattle rustling, the Government must put police posts nearby. The police must patrol the area day and night. Night patrols must take place because this is going on forever. When will we ever stop this? We need curfews in those areas as well. So, in my view, the solution to some of these is not only beefing up the area with police but ensuring that police stations are nearby and that they patrol the area and at night, nobody moves out of their homes. Look at the story that Dennitah Ghati told us. People sleep with cattle in their houses! It is terrible, dirty and it does not look nice---"
