    "content": "community. If the problem is from the Pokot side, do you not think that it is better to have ‘askaris’ on that side so that they can assist to track the bandits? It now looks like the narrative is that the entire Pokot community is comprised of bandits. That is the conclusion of the matter. They are trying to protect one community. We are reading a lot of political motives in that because why are they isolating Sen. Moi or I? If they really want a solution, they should call us. We need to address this matter. When the problem among the Pokots and Turkanas, Samburu and Turkanas, Pokots and Samburus became intense, President Uhuru Kenyatta called all the leadership. Sen. Leshore and Sen. Lesuuda who are here were also in attendance. He told us to talk to our communities. He gave us sufficient support such as helicopters. We were there for two weeks and the issue was solved. Since them, we have not had any major eruptions between the Pokots and the Turkanas. My brother, Sen. Munyes can confirm. Why are we then isolated in this issue that we can solve if we are united? If I went alone, I would have been called a trouble maker and that is why I wanted us to go as a team. Since they chose to go it alone, I call them problem makers. We are in Government together but I do not care. He has to know how to behave when in Government. It does not matter. He is not a god. All of us are supposed to be serving our people together. Why make me look like I am an enemy to the Tugen or Marakwet yet I am a leader, a professor? I was in charge of all their students when I was the Principal at the university and employed so many of them yet all of a sudden, I am the number one enemy. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, when they saw the incoming Senator, Mr. Kimaiyo, associating himself with Sen. Moi and I, there has been an eruption of activities around Sen. Murkomen daily. Is it not a pointer that these problems are associated and they know what they are doing? We need this matter to be solved."
