"content": "I want to first start by saying that these terrorists have wreaked havoc in Wajir, Mandera, Garissa and other areas of this country, including Baragoi, Baringo area and sections of Lamu. These are also parts of Kenya. We cannot ignore and forget that these regions require teachers. Even as we complain about the deaths, these areas need teachers. The reason why this matter has become so important is because lives were lost. If it was any other suffering, we could close our ears and eyes and say that so long as you are in Kenya, like what Waswahili say vumilia, so that you serve Kenyans. If there is any right that someone must enjoy is the right to life. When you hear of Kenyans losing their lives, you must be concerned. We lost two people, Mr. Seth Odada and his wife from Homa Bay County, Kojwach Ward in Kabondo Kasipul, because of these senseless actions of terrorism. These are people who are not friends of this country. By the way, I have heard some of our colleagues saying that this community should talk amongst themselves. You cannot even single out these terrorists, and identify where they come from. These are criminals who have decided to wreak havoc in this country. You cannot even blame the people of Wajir. Most of these terrorists come from Somalia. Some of them are Kenyans who come all the way even from western Kenya. It should be understood that terrorism is not restricted to people who profess Islamic faith or to those who come from these specific regions. They recruit worldwide. They recruit people across the country whom they train and induct into these criminal activities."
