    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Article 37 of the Constitution is clear that you are free to picket and demonstrate. When the NASA brigade was demonstrating, the police force was overwhelmed. Why are they prioritising battering people during demonstrations instead of taking care of lives? I have seen it. When the police smell chang’aa or busaa somewhere, they move there very fast because they know those people are not armed, and it is a source of bribes. However, when you tell them that you have a terrorist or murderer somewhere, they say that they do not have a vehicle, it has a puncture or has no fuel. If they can go to an extent of arresting the people who are brewing busaa or boda boda riders, they are doing that for a livelihood. Some of us are where we are today because of busaa business. These boda boda boys are doing that work because of unemployment. I have seen police officers molesting these young people. They molest the busaa brewer instead of focusing on this murderer who is terrorising people in Kimilili, Sirisia and Kanduyi. We condemn this activity. The police officers are now remunerated well. If at all they will not shape up, then they should shape out."
