Thank you, CS for honouring our invitation. We are also going to come to your office. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the calculation the CS has given is misleading. When Sen. Mungatana, MGH, asked about his county, what the CS should have done and that is my question--- He talked about 21,556 kilometres of tarmac road. Out of this, 442 kilometres were done in the Tana River. I want to ask the CS, how many kilometres of road are supposed to be tarmacked in Tana River out of the 442 kilometres that were tarmacked? The narrative he is giving is the tarmacked ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I suggest that counties should be given money through conditional grants, so that they can build their own headquarters efficiently. That is what has been happening in most cases. I thank you.

Madam Temporary Speaker, like you have said, we are losing the point here. We are going back to primary Questions. You can see the CS is having problems answering those questions. Sen. Gataya Mo Fire asked three major issues. One is about demarcation, two, adjudication and three, issuance of title deeds. The CS’s answers are like Moi’s time ministerial answers. He is not being specific. He should be specific. Let him tell us when he is going to start demarcation and adjudication. The issue of the title deed can be sorted out. He talked about problems among the communities. Adjudication ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the Motion; that pursuant to Standing Order No.37, the Senate do now adjourn to discuss a definite matter of urgent national importance, namely, the intercommunal killings and displacement of residents in Marsabit County. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Marsabit County has experienced problems after problems. In 1967 we had the Shifta Menace in Marsabit that contributed to a lot of problems, displacements and deaths. Around 2013, 2017 and 2022, we lost over 500 people in Marsabit County. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as you are aware, we lost political leaders from four constituencies of ...
