MPs from North Eastern have called for urgent action to address marginalisation of the region since independence.

Under the umbrella of North Eastern Parliamentary Group (NE-PG), the leaders from Garissa, Wajir and Mandera decried poor infrastructure, insecurity, education challenges, lack of basic services and economic underdevelopment following years of state neglect.
