Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to weigh in on the Statement from my colleague Hon. Mwathi. I just want to caution him as he addresses this issue in that area. This is because when it comes to security, he needs to look at the balance to see whether it is a balance of power or peace. He should look at this area very carefully because on the other side there is another community. If The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

you are seeking to arm one side of the community, then you are arming it against other people who are Kenyans. When people talk about the NPR, they are arming one community against another. The other community living on the other side is the Pokot people. You cannot arm one community to fight another. We cannot allow this to be passed through this House. Hon. Mwathi should be very careful. People are using emotions so that on 9th August, they can be seen by their own people as having defended them. Hon. Mwathi should play a very careful balance in ...

The Kenya Police Reservists (KPRs) are not even there. This matter therefore, Hon. Speaker is very volatile and particularly, around this time. I urge Hon. Mwathi – I know him – he is a peaceful person. He comes from Nairobi and does not know what is going on in terms of insecurity. He might be a Pastor and while going to do these things, he should look at the balance of power between communities, and should not favour one community only. Hon. Mwathi, you have to look at the power balance. Otherwise, I thank you, Hon. Speaker for the opportunity.

Hon. Speaker, I respect you and, to be very honest, I also respect Hon. Kisang. He has completely misunderstood me. I said: Let us check the balance of power so that one community is not advantaged against the other in terms of war. That is exactly what I am saying. I do not know where Hon. Kisang’s mind was. He should withdraw his statement that I made a reckless statement. We do not want our Marakwet and Pokot communities at home to think that I am fighting Hon. Kisang. They will start fighting each other. Hon. Kisang is my great ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. It was a point of order on Hon. Ichung’wah’s sentiments. Allow me to say that we are leaders as well as human beings with emotions. Hon. Ichung’wah has raised something and by extension, so has his side of the political divide. They are all the time casting aspersions on the security and lives of the 46 independent presidential candidates. I want it to be record. Kenyans must know what they know about the 46 independent candidates. Are they planning something against them? Maybe they are, Hon. Speaker. The security agencies need to get in touch and ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for this great opportunity to also add my voice to this issue of hardship allowances. Pokot is also classified under hardship areas. My message to the Committee is that there is need to develop a formula. Everybody wants their area to become categorised as a hardship area and it might be the best time for the Committee to develop a formula like what I see in the Commission on Revenue Allocation. It should be a periodical formula such that it comes to Parliament after five years, so that we can then look at the parameters and ...
