    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, M-Pesa is an innovation that is celebrated the world over. It is an innovation by an individual, but Safaricom took it up as their own innovation. This means this country can come up with world class innovations if institutions can put money into research. In the recent past, the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) came up with the National Defence University. It is a landmark thinking that will bring together very experienced officers from different sub-sectors of defence to sit together and think on strategy, innovation and research with a view to coming up with policies in the areas of military industrialisation. This is the kind of thinking that the various sub-sectors in the Public Service, including Ministries and State Departments, should embrace. To-date, the National Police Service (NPS) uses old methods of tracking criminals. Apart from a few techniques like the use of Closed-Circuit Televisions (CCTV) cameras and DNA tests to nab criminals, our National Police Service has no modern technology for resolving complex crimes. If we must effectively fight crime in Kenya, there must be enough research and development within the National Police Service to counter modern crime."
