    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is something one would suspect that there would be a connection with the failure to uphold rule of law and the blast that happened at Uhuru Park, when the State failed to prosecute those who inserted words in some copies of the Draft Constitution. We now have people trying to employ murder and mayhem to ensure that this Constitution does not go through or it is stopped. We have even heard people calling for its stoppage. We want the Minister to tell us what happened to the investigations relating to the Government Press. Finally, I connect this with the failure by the Government to accelerate police reforms. If we want security in this country, police reforms have to be accelerated. It is not only weeding bad elements from the police, but it is also giving them the necessary equipment and ensuring that they are well-organized, trained and equipped to handle these issues. What is the Minister doing about police reforms to ensure that we have calm and quiet? In conclusion, I am disappointed that the Minister is happy to report to us of only three arrests. We have been behaving exactly the way we behaved after the 2005 Referendum. We have been observing hate speech by many people among them the Clergy and politicians. It does not matter from what side of the divide it is coming from. What has the Government done to ensure that everybody, whoever they are, who have uttered words that amount to hate speech appears before a court of law? Why are some being handled with kid gloves while others are sleeping in cells?"
