"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the first one, I join Sen. Khaniri in offering condolences. Security issues in Vihiga County are not new to us. I led the team to Kilingili when he brought this Statement to the House. A new police team was appointed there and they made certain commitments. It is disheartening that those issues are still happening in that county. Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has informed the House that last year, I honourably resigned as the Vice Chairperson of the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations. There is still a vacancy for Members who might be interested. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like the Committee to know that last week, there is a Statement I brought on extrajudicial killings in Nairobi City County that have gone up. The House advised that the best way to go is to form an ad hoc committee to look at police issues including extrajudicial killings. This week, I will bring a Motion on that to this House. I believe the Committee will supplement the Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations in looking at the matters affecting the people of Vihiga County. Lastly, on the issue of locusts, the House is being embarrassed because we have invited the CS many times. I just want clarity. Is this another invitation or these are summonses because the summonses cannot be ignored? With the invitation, they are talking of seven days but they can give all manner of excuses. The CS needs to be summoned to appear tomorrow. I thank you."
