Madam Temporary Speaker, Sen. Olekina is telling us that leaders should sit and discuss, while people are being shot, schools are torched and people have been displaced from where they live. Tomorrow, we are going to bury somebody. What are we discussing? We should allow the Government to do what it does best. I am not getting the message he is trying to drive home. The people of Laikipia are suffering while, Sen. Olekina, is lecturing us about climate change. Do you burn somebody’s home, kill or displace people because of climate change?

Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank the Chairperson of the Standing Committee of the Senate on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations. I would like to assure him that I will join them on Monday. The only thing that the Chairperson of the Committee has not addressed is when he will table a report to this House after the county visit. I would like the Chairperson to give a rough idea on when the Committee will hold a meeting with the other security organs that he mentioned.

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I have looked at this Report and it is true. The observation is very right, but the recommendations are wrong. It is like saying Sen. Kinyua has teeth and a cow has teeth. That observation is very true. However, concluding that Sen. Kinyua is a cow is wrong. It is exactly what they have done. If you look at what they are recommending, they say that all the recommendations should be taken back to the Ministry. So, there was no need for this complainant to come to the Senate in the first place. I have ...

Madam Deputy Speaker, there must be clarity in this Statement. The Cabinet Secretary was in Laikipia yesterday but he did not talk about evicting pastoralists. He was very clear. He said illegal grazers.
