    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Faki regarding the disappearance of persons in Mombasa County. I appreciate that Sen. Faki has requested for the Statement and take note that the issue is not unique to only Mombasa County. Issues of disappearance of persons when going about their business are rampant in Kenya. It is more in the regions where there are security operations. Specifically in Laikipia County, there are several businessmen and Kenyans who have been branded as illegal herders by the Kenya Government or some people. We have lost them because they have not been found anywhere, three months after their disappearance. I ask this House to put a rider on the Statement that the Kenya police should provide statistics of Kenyans who have disappeared. In Laikipia County, specifically, we have lost about four people in Rumuruti town. I join my colleagues in condemning these acts by the police. I am sure that those people are not alive. We should have a Committee to investigate this and make sure that their families are informed about the whereabouts of their loved ones. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
