• 21 Nov 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Bill by Sen. Cherarkey. It is a good Bill because it is addressing an issue of rustling. This rustling is not only cattle rustling, it is livestock rustling and it does not only occur in those areas where they keep large stocks of animals.

• 21 Nov 2023 in Senate: These people travel even in areas like Lamu where you have the army there.
