    "content": "(Hon. (Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is true that we have lost officers in the line of duty. Some of them were lost in counter-terrorism efforts, others in counter-banditry efforts and others in the fight against urban crime. Just yesterday, we lost an officer who was in the company of two other colleagues and they had cornered a dangerous armed thug. They managed to neutralise the thug but the thug shot three officers, one of whom succumbed yesterday. Last year, we lost 58 NPRs countrywide in all these dangerous operations. As to the question of whether we send recruits to dangerous missions, the answer is no. We have reserved the deployment of officers in complicated security operations – including those that involve the fight against terror, banditry and other dangerous criminals – to Elite Units within the National Police Service (NPS)."
