    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for allowing me to make a comment on this petition. I am a Member of the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations that handled the petition by the residents of the Teri B Ranch. We did our best as a Committee in visiting the affected area, talking to the residents and noting the security concerns that affect he resident of Teri B Ranch. We would like to help the residents of Teri B Ranch. However, they must also help themselves. I am speaking from my experience of being a pastoralist who also engages in moving animals from one place to another. From the investigations by the Committee, it is clear that the camel herders are to some extent in agreement with individuals within Teri B Ranch and they can lease out parcels of land to graze their camels. The problem is that they are unable to contain these camels to the particular areas where they have agreed that there is a lease agreement between the members of Teri B Ranch and those camel herders. We will at no time ever defend criminals. Even if you have been allowed to graze on a certain land and you have an agreement between the camel herders and the owners of the land, you cannot go out to kill people in order to ensure that you graze on their land even when the agreement expires. This is a very complex situation. Probably, the call by Sen. Mwaruma is that we go deep into the issues that are being raised to ensure that we enforce what the Committee has recommended."
