I have heard the Members from Turkana speak. I have listened to Hon. Cecilia, the Woman Representative for Turkana; Hon. Ariko, my friend; Hon. Emathe, and other Members of Parliament. You may think they spoke as Members of Parliament from another country, and not from Kenya. It behoves upon this House to take stern action and put measures in place to address this problem. We must call upon the Government to live up to its constitutional duty of protecting the lives and properties of the people in Turkana County."

"content": " Does it have 77,000 square kilometres? It is bigger by 1,000 square kilometres. We always read this in newspapers hence we are conscious of these things. The people of Turkana face attacks from Uganda by the Karamoja; from South Sudan by the Ndungiro, Taposa, and Dinka; from Ethiopia by the Merille and the Dasanech, and even domestic attacks from neighbouring communities. All these are issues that should touch the heart of every Kenyan. I am sure the Government has seriously heard the voices of the Members of Parliament. I share your sentiments in the fact that this should have had more serious participation by the Members of Parliament. Losing 22 Kenyans at once, probably about 30, I am told; because there are many who have not yet been accounted for. Hon. Emathe, is that not the case? The Chair shares that grief immensely. Next is Hon. Moroto, who will be followed by Hon. Naomi."

"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to join my colleagues in offering condolences to the people of Turkana. These are Kenyans, and not foreigners. I appreciate the way everyone is expressing themselves here. These are my neighbours. We also share some disputes, but sometimes when such things happen, we come together because the same Government, which is giving us some problems, especially on the security side, had a thanksgiving service for peace on the 5th of January between the Pokot, the Turkana, the Marakwet and the Tugen in Baringo. However, just a few days later, issues arose and we lost lives from the very same communities that attended the thanksgiving service for peace. I want to sincerely say that we have a big, big problem with our security leadership in Kenya. Those in charge are not serious. I remember when I was a student during the time of the late President Kenyatta, we did not suffer the way we are suffering. When the late President Moi came to power, he brought a new type of operation because he was genuinely interested in people living together in peace as Kenyans. After that, the late President Kibaki came, and now, we face a big problem with security. I think it is because we have spent so much of our time and energy on politics, and now the people responsible for security are always moving with us, especially those in office."
