    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I learned about the deployment of the 20 officers at the Assembly when the Motion of impeachment was being discussed. Upon learning that, as an officer who is in charge of that directorate, I felt that my department was implicated and I thought that it was prudent to take a statement and shed more light on that incident. That is on the 29th February, 2024. The following day was the first of March. That is when I wrote a letter to my Deputy Director in charge of Sub Counties instructing him to start investigations and report to my office what transpired on that date of 29th December, 2023 explaining to me why this information did not reach our office. On the 4th of March, my Deputy wrote to me after undertaking preliminary investigations and confirmed to me that, indeed, the 20 enforcement officers were mobilised and they assisted in the arrest of our Deputy Governor’s brother at his home in Keumbu. Why it took so long is the question that all of us need to understand. This incident is happening at the home of the Deputy Governor. My sub-county commander and the sub-county administrator are involved in this arrangement. The reason why they did not report to me, as usual, is an issue that requires further investigations and disciplinary action taken against them. I have recommended in my letter if you can see; the letter dated 8th March, 2024 to the Chief Officer (CO). In the last part paragraph, “The sub- county administrator and sub-county commander failed to report to our office as required of them.” Reason? Well known to them. I have forwarded to the CO for further action."
