• 10 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Speaker. view
• 4 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I think it is common knowledge that we are moving towards irrigation rather than depending on rain fed agriculture which is not sustainable anymore because of the climatic change. We are targeting the entire country The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, from the outset, I want to thank hon. Mule for bringing this Motion. It has been overdue, but it is not that we, who come from that region, are not sensitive to this problem. We have agreed, as political leaders, to stop this issue from being publicized through the media. That is because it is going to fuel the bad situation. However, it has come here and the facts have to be said as stated by the speakers before me. view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: There are issues of tribal clashes. People say that it is normal for Somalis to kill each other and fight over pasture and resources. This is no longer about that issue. It is not an issue of pasture or clan fight. People are dying at the centre of the district and county headquarters in broad daylight and properties are being destroyed. We have the biggest military base in Wajir in that region. What is the purpose of having the military base there if there is no security and our people are not secured? I would like to take this opportunity ... view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: jointly or separately and tried to talk to the people. But there is no goodwill from Government security agencies. When we, as leaders, stand up in front of the people and ask the Government to take action and not spare us as political leaders and even as Members of Parliament, then I do not know what else we can do. It is three years down the line and hundreds of lives have been lost. No single person has been arrested. view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: If you look at the KDF issue that has been mentioned here, the KDF is in Kismayu and its purpose originally was to create a buffer zone for the safety of this country. The Al Shabaab are 15 kilometres from Mandera Town and they come every night and attack the town and yet, the KDF is in Kismayu. What business do they have in Kismayu? Whose interests are they protecting there in Kismayu? Are they there to do business or are they there to protect the charcoal business? That is because I hear there is charcoal business in that town. ... view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, even if the General Service Unit (GSU) were sent to Wajir, they would go to the police camp and stay there doing nothing totally. I have never seen a situation where people die 100 kilometres from security personnel. People are attacked on the main road and die and yet, the security personnel do not respond. Vehicles have been supplied to the police but they cannot move. If Wajir Town is attacked during the day and the police, military and the Administration Police (AP) cannot leave their camps and they are there just watching, then what business ... view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the situation there is really very critical. We have given political direction and goodwill. We have had a security meeting with the regional and county teams from both counties and we have washed our hands and given them the mandate to provide security. It is their responsibility. I think the Government must compensate the loss of properties and lives, including those of Wajir people because they are responsible. It is not an issue that has happened in the bush. People used to fight in manyattas; there in the bush, but the war has come to town, ... view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, up to now, the Cabinet Secretary responsible for internal security is just here in Harambee House. He has not even gone to either of those counties to see for himself what is really happening. I do not know who he represents. What is he in charge of? We are prepared as leaders to end this. We have talked to our people and we are still talking to them. But the Government must up its game and bring those criminals to book. Unless that is done, there will be no peace in that place. view
• 3 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much. view
