Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to join my colleagues in supporting the Report. What happened in Tsavo regarding the death of the 11 black rhinos should not have happened. It was gross negligence and failure by the CS and his team to ensure that such precious animals, in the list of endangered species, did not perish. I support the Committee’s Report that the CS should take responsibility and so should the other concerned officers. This is because if something like this happens in another country, it The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for ...

would have been a matter that calls for the CS to resign. But this being Kenya, he still continues to hold office. I believe he should think twice about retaining that office. This brings me to something that happened the other day in the Maasai Mara. People were so greedy and negligent that they allowed the building of camps along the crossings used by wildebeest. They are the spectacle of the great migration, which is the eighth wonder of the world. People have built camps and blocked the movement of the wildebeests and other animals, thus causing the death of ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, in fact, I would like to commend and thank my colleague, the Chairman who has just spoken.

If a Member asks a question with specific answers expected and then the Ministries give very shallow responses, this puts the Chairpersons in no-good position. I would like to clearly tell the Cabinet Secretaries that they answer to Parliament and they should not ...

that is what is happening. That is why there are conflicts in the country and there is no authority anywhere. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I agree with him that he needs more time. However, I suggest that the Committee should consider taking these matters to IPOA, especially the one that affects my people. Two people died and four were injured by the police. In the three weeks, we want a thorough answer on that one.
