"content": "go to Westgate, but the officers had to wait for orders to come from one level to another. They came late because of that. There was no ability to quickly respond. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, GSU, police and military officers came. Unfortunately, one of our friends, Mr. Munene, from the GSU was killed by the military because of lack of a coordinated response. May God rest his soul in peace. This Bill intends to sort out such issues. We know we have early warning signals. We cannot be going to Budalangi every year to give money and solutions for floods. We know there will be floods even this year. We cannot be always taking resources to Huruma and Mathare. Every month, there is a fire. We know. If you are mitigating these things, you know what the cause of that disaster is. The cause of those fires, for instance, is electric faults. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have tried with the former leadership and now Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) has too many changes. I was trying with the former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to let them have safe and cheap electricity for the slum dwellers. If you are charging them the same tariffs like us, they will have illegal connections which causes a lot of fires. There is this market that we always go to. The fires are caused by three reasons majorly. The first one, of course, is a group of people who claim they have a title deed to Gikomba, the 12 acres. We said it is a public land and there is no title. There is a notion that if I burn structures in that area, I will get people to move. The second is, of course, the electric faults and accidents. The ladies who are my very good friends who cook"
