    "content": "For example, looking at our borders and the way we issue visas, we will be disadvantaged because the world has become a village. Not unless we become serious on terrorism, by ratifying free movement, terrorists will be coming into our country without hindrance. We will find them at our door steps. This is one of the disadvantages of the free movement of people. We should also not forget that Africa is not free of contagious diseases spread from one person to another especially Ebola and others. We must put in place measures, whereby persons should be adequately examined to establish whether they are infected. We may allow people to move freely only to find they are carrying contagious diseases. We know that Kenyans only act when something happens. We do not take preventive measures but concentrate on curing. On the curing idea, there is a Motion which will be coming a few hours from now. We have waited for the rains to come and they have failed. We have not thought of ways of storing rain water and food. However, when we are struck by hunger, we realise that, we were supposed to prevent this eventuality. I support this Motion but we need to be cautious. We should not forget that we have allowed free movement by giving visas at the point of entry. I wish you can visit a place called Milimani. You will find Chinese hawkers and people selling mandazi and samosa on the streets The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
