    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in Kitui Central where I am the Member of Parliament, there are more than 2,000 Somali voters who vote for me. If you go to Mwingi where Hon. Mulyungi is MP, there are over 2,000 Somali voters. They have no problem. We are not talking about people who are in towns or urban settings and doing business. We are talking about camel herders who have come to a game reserve and are causing havoc to our people. We agreed, and that is why it is unfortunate that I see a level of dishonesty which I do not accept. In that meeting where all of us were present, we agreed that every Kenyan - including the Kamba – should leave the game reserve. We agreed on that. The second thing we agreed on was for the Government to provide an alternative source of water and pasture for the camel herders as they leave the game reserve. We are not talking about people who are on their own land. I assure my friend that if there is anybody who has been removed from their private land and not the game reserve, even we as leaders from Kitui are willing to sit down and settle the matter. We will not allow anybody to be in the game reserve so as to harass our people where there is no chief, assistant chief or village elder. We cannot accept that. The herders should leave our county. We live with our brothers in an urban setting without any problem."
