"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support the Statement by the Senator for Kakamega County regarding demonstrations, the resultant killings and destruction of property. It is the right of every Kenyan, when they have a reason to, to demonstrate peaceably and unarmed. That is a right that cannot be taken away from Kenyans. The other thing that concerns me is that no one is addressing the causes of these particular demonstrations. We have had young people demonstrating and have grievances against the Government. However, the Government has not made an attempt at resolving or addressing these grievances. It is time that the Government of Kenya starts addressing the root cause of these demonstrations and not just demonizing those that demonstrate. I must also express my very deep embarrassment that the Head of State can address this issue without first passing a message of condolences to those who have lost loved ones, especially through a police bullet. Even as we discuss this matter, we must state categorical that anyone who destroys life or property must face the law. However, we cannot apply the law selectively. I say this because there are some youths charged under the Terrorism Act for torching the police station in Kikuyu town. Another police station was torched, Mawego Police Station in Homa Bay County. However, none of the youths that perpetrated that have been charged under the Terrorism Act. Madam Temporary Speaker, the law must be applied equally. We cannot have youths from a particular region being charged under the Terrorism Act, while there are youths from another regions that are charged under a different Act."
