    "content": "I must appreciate that as we promised the uniformed officers that the Government would work to review their terms of service under the Kenya Kwanza regime, under the Chairmanship of Emeritus Justice Maraga, this is a work in progress. I hope they will conclude this process and our officers will be well served by the people of Kenya and taxpayers as they work hard to serve. Even we as Members of Parliament under the protective arm of our officers must respect them and honour them for the services that they give us and the people of Kenya. That goes for everybody, even members of the public. We, as leaders, must honour and respect our officers as they carry out their mandate; whether the officer is guarding that bank that is holding your millions of shillings and other valuables or just guarding your home. That is why yesterday, I was perturbed when I saw one of our sons who was fortunate and privileged to serve this country as a President and Commander-in-Chief the Kenya Defence Forces, including our policemen for 10 good years, reduce himself to the point of commandeering goons to chase away the policemen who were carrying out their mandate as uniformed officers. Therefore, I have to apologise on behalf of the people of Kiambu because we are the ones who sired him."
