Thank you, Hon. Speaker, Sir. Two weeks ago, I sought a Statement on the security situation inLaikipia which still persists but I have not received any response. Some farms have been invaded and we have a situation that threatens to explode. We already have situations in Samburu and Isiolo that are uncontrollable now.

Farms have been invaded in parts of Laikipia and arms are being moved freely. I sought a Statement on what is being done by the respective Cabinet Secretary from the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security and the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. It will be quite in order for us to get a response.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I say this in order to bring order to the National Police Service. Senior Superintendent is usually the rank of an Officer Commanding Police Division (OCPD). It is important for the IG to be able to have command over the OCPDs and the officers below that rank. So, it would be a good idea to move a further amendment to so that the IG can have the authority to transfer and command up to the rank of Senior Superintendent.

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Adjournment Motion and as we proceed for Christmas holidays which will be a working holiday, it is important that we have peace throughout Kenya. I said earlier there was impending war in the section that I come from and it is now evident that, that is actually happening. The purview of the KDF in this particular operation should even spread further to Laikipia and so on so that we can have peace during this time that we are having holidays. As other speakers have said, Members of Parliament are involved.
