Thank you, hon. Speaker. First and foremost, I would like to pass my condolences to the people of Gatundu. May God rest his soul in eternal peace and give his family ample time to recover from the big loss. Secondly, as a Member of the Human Rights Caucus, I have just heard the Chairman of the Lands Committee giving an undertaking on the petition that was presented by hon. Neto.

. He went on the national television and declared that police officers and the General Service Unit (GSU) personnel had been deployed to that area. Four days ago, when we were at Wajir County; in the thick of what I can call a tribal or civil war, there was no single GSU officer on the ground. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you look at the size of Wajir South sub- county, which borders Garissa and has the biggest stretch against the Republic of Somalia, it is the same size as the Republic of Rwanda. This Sub-county is being manned by ...
