Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I would like to respond as directed by the Speaker yesterday. The Member for Kilifi South, Hon. Ken Chonga had requested a Statement regarding the eviction of Mr Kea Rimba Gona family from land registered LR No.MN11783 by Mahmoud on 11th October 2024. The...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Firstly, I appreciate and acknowledge that the Member of Parliament is in agreement with the response. You, being a lawyer, and to a bigger extent, this is a land issue, as indicated, it is a live case in court. The role of the Ministry...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, considering that the House is proceeding for recess, please give us two weeks. Should I get a response before then, I can as well furnish the concerned Member.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, I know that my very able Vice-Chairman had presented a preliminary report on the matter, but I would like to update the House. The information could be available as early as this afternoon.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Yes, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The Member for Kacheliba, Hon. Titus Lotee, requested for a statement regarding insecurity in his constituency. He was concerned by a banditry attack at Kases Village in Kasai Ward, which led to the death of two women. In particular,...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) First, I need to appreciate that the Member for Kacheliba who asked for the statement admitted that he is satisfied with the response, apart from just a few concerns. Having said that, I think the Member should remember that the Committee actually visited the...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am well guided. However, I think it is also good to put it on record. The Report of the Committee on the extensive visit and fact-finding in the troubled region has already been tabled in this House. It is a...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) As much as I appreciated that we visited the place, I think I indicated that there is no harm if we visit again as soon as possible. We are going to capture it in our schedule and communicate the time of the visit to...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I will bring it tomorrow in the afternoon.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) It is ready, but he is not in the House.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I hope he will be present in the House.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I will.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Yes, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I will bring a response in two weeks, but I want to add one thing. The issue of constructed and completed police stations with no personnel, as indicated by the Hon. Members, can be followed up with the Inspector-General (IG)...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, on the question that was asked by Hon. Wario concerning North Horr, the issue was canvased and discussed in depth by the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration when he appeared before the Committee. There is a lot of progress....

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you again, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I need your indulgence in deciding whether the concerned Hon. Member is in the House.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Yes, I do, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I do not know whether the concerned Member is in the House as well?

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, being that these documents belong to the House, I beg to table with the Clerks-at-the-Table.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, I think I could follow the same suit because the only bit that was remaining was for the Cabinet Secretary to furnish the updated number of deaths, and that is why I have not included it with what I have submitted to...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to pick from where I left. On 13th September 2024, at around 21.40 p.m., Mr Wambua Kioko reported, through a phone call, vide OB No 8613/09/2024 the abduction of his passenger. The caller is an Uber driver and...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo, (Narok West, UDA) Yes, I am.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I had not. It should be treated as an unverified document for now. The validity of the letter is in question. We need your guidance. We all know that such investigations can be complex. The Members are already alluding or suggesting that the MCA...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo, (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, the Member of Parliament for Eldas Constituency, Hon.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, as much as I appreciate and I am equally concerned by the disappearance of our colleague, I also want to be considerate and practical. This afternoon may not be practical. In the bare minimum, kindly let me bring the statement tomorrow...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, Tuesday next week. I suggest that the Member should consider it an abduction or a missing person, and be on record and classified as that.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Deputy Speaker, Hon. Keynan’s question was very specific. I seek your indulgence that the other issues be addressed by the Cabinet Secretary during Question Time. We should take that approach.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I think they are quite a number.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) They are six. I can start with Hon. Marianne’s Request. Do we have to go in a particular order?

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) And Hon. Makilap. (Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo consulted with Hon. Joseph Makilap)

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I still had one Statement, but if you allow me, I do not want to go back to what Members have said. But the issue of fire is not just the mandate of national Government. It is cross-cutting. It needs collaboration between all the...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, as I agree with the Member, we all know the issue of investigation. At times, you cannot predict the timelines. I, however, want to commit to the Member, Kenyans and this House, that the DCI Department will do anything humanly possible...
