"content": "We should not demonise Air Bed and Breakfast (Airbnb). They have been existing for a very long time. I do not think there is anything wrong with them. There is something wrong with some of those people who have resorted to those killings. The peculiarity of those killings is that a lot of more of it is happening to people who are close to each other; friends, families, couples and those who claim to be in love. The other peculiarity about the cases we are seeing is that even the matters that land in court, the penalties are not spelt out early enough for us to realise there is seriousness in this matter. Something is terribly wrong. As a House of Parliament, we need to do something in our position. We need to come up with a law that is going to help protect our children, mothers and wives. The apparent poisoning of the mind through alcoholism and substance abuse is one of the issues that are attributed to this. We are having parties in private houses that lead to anything. I need to caution our young women for one thing. When you get into a relationship, do not keep it as a secret. Keeping it as a secret enables the killer to adjudicate their plan. Let people know. There is nothing wrong with being in a relationship. Let people know that you are in a relationship. The other important thing is the need to know your friends very well. If you see someone who does not want to be known, a child of so and so who does not want to be known, avoid them like poison because they are not real. Abstain from parties in private residences for the young people, especially ladies. Should parties turn nasty, please take off and save your life. That is what is happening because some of those parties as we read in the papers turn nasty and people kill each other. If you are not a substance user, and you are forced to use, if you refuse to use it, you can even be killed. We have a problem in this country. We are calling upon our law enforcement entities to take this matter seriously, especially substance abuse.
