    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to air my views about the incoming Inspector General of Police (IG). In him, I saw a person from a humble background like any other child in Kenya. He joined the force at the rank of a corporal. In him, I could see rays of hope for police officers at lower ranks to go through the ranks up to the position of IG. Secondly, I saw a person that comes into the force with a wealth of experience, having worked in various places in Kenya and in different capacities. The fact that he has been in charge of several units in the force will help him to man the force well. My only concern is the fact that the police force is riddled with a lot of challenges, corruption being at the top and followed by the practice of being relaxed at the job. That has been brought about because of the lifestyle and the shortcomings in the force. The Pokot Community that I represent is condemned because of cattle rustling. If cattle rustling took place on the moon, it would be said that the Pokots are responsible because that is the perception. I hope that the experience that the IG is coming in with will stamp out the practice, so that my community will not be condemned. Needless to say, there are many other insecurity issues in our towns. With those few remarks, I support him to be the IG."
