"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I just want to ride on the Statement by Sen. Cherargei because I stay on the other side of the border. I know my people and his people are suffering. I want to echo the sentiment that he has said that the concerned security agencies need to move very fast so that they can silence those who are agitating to make the border porous. Madam Temporary Speaker, it is not only one side that has suffered the consequences. We are the people who are suffering most. Sen. Cherargei has taken the right path by bringing up this issue. This is because when the politicians go on the site, we look like we are fueling the conflict. It is good for us to use the right way by presenting our issues here. These issues will not only be understood by the nation, but also whoever is supposed to take charge of what is happening. Madam Temporary Speaker, we need to continue living in a peaceful way as neighbours. This is because the issue that Sen. Cherargei is talking about occurs every now and then. We, as leaders, are not happy with what is happening. We want the Committee that is concerned to move very fast, so that we can live in peace. This is because our children are married in the other side. Also, their children are married in our county. Therefore, we are more of friends and relatives than neighbours. So, it is good for the Committee to take up the issue so that our children and our people live in harmony. There are causalities on both sides and we need it to be addressed as fast as possible. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
