Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, these are very important questions by Sen. Wambua. The Cabinet Secretary needs to understand that the entire country is listening to her. Therefore, she needs to give answers because people are waiting for them. Sen. Mandago asked questions on the debts that the national Government owes KEMSA, but there is an issue that has not been responded to. Nevertheless, is the Cabinet Secretary aware that civil servants are being denied treatment in private institutions because of the debts that the Government owes them through NHIF and Social Health Authority (SHA)? There are police officers who have ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to comment on the Statement sought by Sen. Peris Tobiko. The people of Kajiado are in a bad situation and they are worried. There is a dangerous person moving from one sub-county to another in the county. That person by the name of Lorgali has terrorised our people. I am worried because we have security systems of this Government. I think that is the person who should be abducted by the

Government, but not innocent children or young men in this country who have not done anything. They should use all their apparatus to make sure they abduct Lorgali, who is raping elderly women in our county. If they do not, we will definitely give our people authority to find him. Probably he will be found dead. I do not think we need to give the Government a chance to continue allowing people who violate the law to terrorise citizens of Kajiado. I am told that man is in Kajiado Town, but I do not know what the security personnel are ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Let me also take my best opportunity time to thank you and convey my heartfelt condolences to the family of Sen. William Cheptumo, who happens to be a good friend of mine. We happened to be together in the Committee of National Security, Defence and Foreing Relations. This is a very sad moment for this Senate and to the entire nation and the people of Baringo, whom Sen. Cheptumo represented. I happen to be a very close friend of late Sen.

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also support the Statement by Hon. Sen. Chute on the issue of KRC. It is true that KRC have been in books that they are getting and repossessing land from different institutions and groups. I support this Statement because it has affected most of our communities in different locations. There is one group called the Maa Group around Nairobi, Kenya Railways Headquarters. They have some money that they are still holding particularly for the compensation of the Maasai community.
