Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to thank the Cabinet Secretary for answering the questions from this House. You know the Cabinet Secretary was my former Senator. I recall when he was being removed as the Majority Leader in this House, he said he would come back strong. It is true, he has now come back as the Cabinet Secretary. Baringo County has three major roads that have stalled for a while. That is Oinobmoi-Tenges Road, Kipsaraman-Bartabwa-Kinyach-Arror Road, then Karandi- Muchongoi-Marigat Road. Three months ago, we had a session as the Baringo leaders with the Cabinet Secretary. At ...

My question to the Cabinet Secretary is: when is the construction of these roads going to commence because these roads were stalled for reasons that we all know? A road like Karandi-Mochongoi is very important. It connects Baringo to Laikipia and has a lot of economic value, just like the Oinobmoi to Tenges and from Kipsaraman all the way to the Elgeyo Marakwet County where the Cabinet Secretary comes from. Cabinet Secretary, I know you shared with us three months ago, but I would like on behalf of the Baringo people to know when the work will begin.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Bill. If you look at the intention and objective of this Bill, it proposes a law that will enable branding of livestock. The intention is to identify the livestock, so that if they are stolen, it is possible to identify in which county or constituency the livestock belongs to. The intention is to help the security agents in the Government to facilitate the recovery of livestock and identify the owners of the livestock. However, this is the culmination of the situation that has been faced by the pastoral communities for ...

Kenya, His Excellency William Samoei Ruto, the situation continues. That is why, in this House, there is a Motion by me, seeking this House to pass a resolution to declare cattle rustling a national disaster, and we establish a fund to compensate the victims. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the unfortunate situation is that it is only the pastoral people who feel the pinch, but the rest of the country where there is plenty, food, and communication, do not know what it feels. Recently, a colleague of mine asked me, ‘Sen. Cheptumo, how possible is it that you can drive away 300 ...
