"content": "In the Statement, the Committee should - (1) Explain what led to the brutal murder of the six bouncers in Bumala, Busia County. (2) State what measures have been taken to ensure the perpetrators of the heinous act are brought to book. (3) Explain what measures are in place to avert such events from recurring in future. (4) State what action the Government is taking to help the bereaved families to offset mortuary and burial costs. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, before I was elected as Senator, I was a Member of Parliament for Nyando Constituency for two terms. That is where we have lost young people in a manner that is still not well understood. It is my request to my Chairperson who is here, that these perpetrators must be brought to book. This heinous killing whereby innocent people who had just gone to a funeral in Busia County ended up being slaughtered like cows. It is now my plea even to the people of Kisumu County to be calm as the Government comes in because this has created a lot of tension within Kisumu County. I want the Government to move with speed because killing people from one area at once and in one day is a big loss. I plead to with the Chairperson to move with speed as we go to lay them to rest this Friday so that these perpetrators are brought to book."
