Mr. Speaker, Sir, there was no diplomacy when the cows were being taken from us. The cows were forcefully taken away by the Government and handed over to armed Ugandans. We do not even know who they are. Could the Minister use his powers to recover the cows?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, for those who are giving false information to the effect that some APs were killed, the Minister has powers to arrest and charge them in a court of law. I am only appealing to the Minister to contact the Ugandan side in Kapchorwa District, and tell those who are involved to hold on to the cows until we sort out the issue. He can do that, at least, for the Pokot people.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. From the onset, I would like to sound an alarm in this House to the Government about famine in many parts of this country. There is not sufficient food in my constituency. If food is not availed to my people in the next few weeks, we will see people die from starvation. I would like this Government to take this matter very seriously. I would like to appeal to the Government to step up relief food distribution to famine-hit areas of this country to save lives.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. My good friend, the Minister for Science and Technology, is imputing improper motives on the Pokots who live in Trans Nzoia.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Minister for being gracious. Kacheliba Constituency falls under the Pokot County Council. I would like to ask the Minister, in the future, to consider taking affirmative action in areas where the trustland law applies. The county councils that fall under trustland are struggling a lot and if there could be any way of working a formula to benefit them with regard to LATF and so on, they should also be considered. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would also like the Minister to do exactly what other hon. Member ...
