"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations regarding the rising cases of insecurity in Eastleigh in Nairobi County. Security is a critical component of the national political and development agenda. Crime and violence are increasingly recognized as significant development challenges, particularly in urban areas. Incidents of crime, robbery, gang violence and gender-based domestic violence undermine both macroeconomic and microeconomic growth, hinder productivity and negatively affect societal and individual well-being. In recent weeks, several incidents of crime have been reported in the area. However, my attention has been drawn to the most recent case, a viral CCTV footage capturing the moment when a young man identified as Abdrahim Ibrahim was shot and killed by an unknown assailant early Saturday morning on 10th November this year. In the statement, the committee should- (1) Conduct an inquiry into the rise in insecurity within Nairobi County, particularly in Eastleigh and assess any emerging patterns that may help identify the root causes behind these criminal activities. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

(3) Describe the measures taken by the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) and other law enforcement agencies to investigate the murder of Mr. Abdirahim and bring the responsible individuals to justice. (4) Outline any plans by the State Department for Internal Security and National Administration to ensure transparency and accountability in the handling of murder cases and detail the steps taken to strengthen the criminal justice system to ensure that perpetrators are held accountable under the law. I thank you."

"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to contribute on the statement by Sen. Mundigi on the welfare of police officers upon transfer or retirement. Let me appreciate the distinguished Senator for bringing an important issue. When the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations will be looking into the statement, it is important for the public to be made aware whether when a police officer is transferred to Turkana, Tana River or West Pokot because of indiscipline or punishment for a certain reason. It happens abruptly and affects the social setup. I am aware of a situation where a young officer with a young child, three months old, whose wife was breast-feeding, was transferred. I had to intervene; it is imperative that we defend these people. We should be made aware of the procedure taken. The other issue that is important is on the promotion of these officers. I recently met a traffic officer, who told me that he has been in the lower cadre of a constable for the last 27 years. This person is from Kuria. I feel like it is imperative for us to know. If I sit in one position for 20 years, I stagnate, therefore, so there is no growth whatsoever. I plead with the committee to give us information on what criteria is used to promote police officers from constable, corporal, sergeant to chief. Is it based on academic? Finally, the issue of transfer is important. Before an officer is transferred, he should be told why they are being transferred. I thank you."

"content": "Asante sana, Bw. Spika. Ningependa kuongea dakika moja kuhusu Taarifa zilizoulizwa na Sen. Mundingi na Sen. Nyutu. Kwanza, polisi ni muhimi sana katika nchi hii ingawa watu wengi wanalalamika na pia nyuki hapigwi busu, polisi pia ni watu. Ukiangalia polisi wanaohamishwa kutoka mahali pamoja kupelekwa pengine, wako na familia zinazovunjika. Polisi anapochukua mtaji na kuweka katika ujenzi wa nyumba mahali pamoja, halafu anatolewa na kupelekwa mahali pengine anapofaa kulipa kodi, inaleta gharama ya ziada ambayo polisi wengi wameshindwa kukimu.

"content": "Ndio maana mara nyingi unaona polisi wengi wakiwa na matatizo ya kiakili. Hilo ni jambo la maana sana. Polisi wanapohamishwa kutoka sehemu moja kupelekwa nyengine, wanafaa kuridhika na mahali wanapopelekwa na wapewe ridhaa ya kukaa mahali pale. Jambo la pili ni kuhusu Taarifa iliyoulizwa na Seneta wa Kaunti ya Murangá. Katika kikao kilichoisha katika Kamati ya Ukulima, Uvuvi na Uchumi Samawati ambacho mimi ni Mwenyekiti, tulikaa na Waziri na kumwambia kwamba angeongeza makataa ili macadamia iuzwe kwa nchi za ng’ambo. Lakini tangu makataa ilipoisha tarehe mbili, mwezi wa kumi na moja, hakuna jambo limefanyika hadi sasa. Bw. Spika, wakulima wanafaa waruhusiwe kufuga mbuzi wao mahali wanaona kuna nyasi. Hizi sheria nyingi zinazoletwa zinawahadaa na kuwakandamiza wakulima. Kuna mazao mengi katika nchi hii ambayo hayana sheria, kwa mfano, mahindi na maziwa. Lakini wakulima wa korosha, macadamia na bixa wana sheria kandamizi zinazowazuia wakulima kuuza mazao yao. Asante sana, Bw. Spika."
