    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I remember when I was the Chairperson of the Committee Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, we had started a process to investigate extra-judicial killings in the country. I agree with my colleagues that we need to form a select Committee. In fact, I assure Sen. Ndwiga, on behalf of the people of Embu, that some of us are willing to join the Committee tomorrow or Monday to ensure that we listen to these issues. Is there a problem in our police force that we do not know of? Are they suffering and need counselling? Madam Temporary Speaker, the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government must apologize to the people of Embu. The Cabinet Secretary (CS), Principal Secretary (PS) and the Inspector-General of Police should be on the ground in Embu as we speak to address these issues once and for all. In as much the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has been given the mandate, many lives are being lost due to extra-judicial even here in Nairobi, mostly in the slums. So, I condemn, in the strongest term possible, those police officers that are killing people. They should not come to Nandi. We do not need such police in Nandi. They should be arrested, prosecuted and the family must be compensated."
