"content": "(a) I am aware that on 1st November, 2011 at around 1100 hours one Mrs. Lucia Wanjiru Marui of mobile number 0711698554 from Nyagithusi Village, Gachege Sub- Location, Kirima Location reported to Kianyaga Police Station that her son, Joseph Kinyua Marui aged 30 years had gone missing from 26th October, 2011. He had gone to graze cows at Karandi in Mt. Kenya Forest and since then he had never returned home or been seen anywhere. A report was recorded in the OB No.14/1/11/2011. However, three head of cattle which he had gone to graze returned home unattended. When the report was received, action was immediately taken and a signal was circulated to all police stations, posts and patrol bases in Kenya, and particularly around Mt. Kenya for the police to check if he might have been spotted anywhere within the areas bordering the forest. A search for the victim is still going on with the help of the police, the KWS officers, and members of the public."

What is required in a case like this is a search party which should go into the forest where this man was. Is the Assistant Minister prepared to organize a search party, so that the family may be able to ascertain whether this man is alive or whether harm came upon him? Is he willing to immediately organize a search party of the KWS, the army, the police and the members of the public?"

Also, it does not make a lot of sense to blame wild animals when clothes were not found. Could he possibly say when he is going to conduct the search, so that the members of the family and the hon. Member can organize themselves?"

Otherwise we are devaluing the citizenship of our people. There must be some value in being a citizen."
