    "content": "(a) Patrick Mwandoe Mwanjala who was murdered on 5th November, 2012; (b) Kea Mwafusi Kinyume who was murdered on 5th October, 2012; (c) Siku Mghalu Mshambala who was murdered on 16th August, 2004; and, (d) Mathew Gae Kitoro who was murdered on 15th January, 2013 while leading other group ranch members in an operation to flush them out. (5) THAT the illegal herders injured the following Teri B Group Ranch members- (a) Peter Mwadilo who was in May this year cut on the head, back and hands with a panga by a camel herder because of stopping him from grazing his animals in his farm; (b) Anorld Mwakughu Mwanyasi who was in November 2012, beaten and his three teeth removed by camel herders for stopping them from grazing in his farm; (c) Gilbert Mwambisi Mwanyasi who was in August 2016, attacked by camel herders but he raised an alarm which made the attackers to escape; and, (d) Jacob Nzano who was attacked by camel herders in 2012 and his livestock stolen, but was lucky the livestock was later recovered at Mackinnon Road after he raised alarm. (6) THAT the camels and cattle may spread diseases to our livestock since they come to a disease free zone area without movement permits, or getting a no objection notice from the veterinary department of the county government contrary to the Animal Diseases Act of Kenya of 2012. (7) THAT the camels and cattle have caused overstocking in the ranch and are causing environmental degradation. (8) THAT the county security organs have been reluctant to protect the Teri B Ranch citizens from the attacks by the camel herders, to investigate and prosecute the attackers and to flush them out due to the fact that the owners of the camels are purported to be influential people in the national Government. (9) THAT by acting in a partisan manner while providing security, failing to investigate and prosecute the illegal herders who attacked innocent citizens, the county security organs violated Article 239(3)(a) and Article 244 of the Constitution. (10) THAT we have made every effort within our means to resolve the matters raised in this Petition with the county security organs but have proved futile. (11) THAT there is no case pending in a court of law, constitutional or any other legal body on the maters raised in this Petition. THEREFORE your humble Petitioners pray that the Senate through its relevant Committee- (1) Deals with this Petition immediately in a view of the urgency and seriousness of the matters raised herein. (2) Investigates the circumstances that enabled the camel herders to move from their home counties and settle in Teri B Group Ranch without the knowledge and consent of the group committee and the County Government. (3) Investigates the circumstances that influenced the failure of the county security organs to provide security to the citizens of Teri B Group Ranch members against attacks by the camel herders, their reluctance to investigate and prosecute the attackers and to flush out the illegal herders from the Ranch when requested to do so.
