    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me support the Statement by Sen. Kwamboka regarding security issues when it comes to the curfew time. Indeed, COVID-19 is a challenge to our country and the curfew has assisted in curbing the spread of COVID-19. However, in most cases, we have had a lot of challenges when it comes to implementing the rules of the curfew time by our security forces. We have had people beaten up. Some are bundled into the vehicles in various areas inhumanly. We end up not achieving what was intended. The curfew has affected market hours and sourcing of food. We have had complaints from various quarters that curfew hours are not followed. We call upon the national Government to look at how the curfew is enforced. For example, recently, the western part of our country was under lockdown. Bomet County, which is far away from that area, was also included, despite the fact that we had a small number of COVID-19 cases. That brought a lot of challenges in terms of working hours, sourcing of food and schooling for our children."
