    "content": "from women who have been selling mbogas the whole day on the streets. This is a call to the Minister and the security personnel to pull up their socks and fill up the gap that is being filled by these organized groups. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, here is where I want to speak about the police. Within the Police Force, unfortunately, there has been some infiltration by these organized criminal groups, either through fear, intimidation, bribery or just generally wanting to be identified with that membership. We do not know which is which, but sometimes when you try to deal with the organized criminal groups as Members of Parliament or even as leaders and you go to the police, you find a block within the Police Force. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like these laws to be able to address fundamentally how we should deal with our own security forces who take part in perpetuating organized criminal activities. Therefore, my plea to the Minister is that this law will be a good law but will not be implementable if we do not deal with the basic issue of the young people in this country who are restless and who need jobs created for them, so that we can deal with this issue once and for all."
