"content": "guided on how to organize their demonstrations and where to go. They would be escorted through the streets or wherever they are going to present their petitions. All this time, the IG is absent. Perhaps, the words that the President used on the former IG of Police, Mr. Mutyambai, on the level of incompetence and cluelessness, are better suited used on IG Koome. Perhaps the President spoke too early when he addressed Mr. Mutyambai. Talking about incompetence and lack of capacity, the IG is the embodiment of lack of capacity to lead the Kenya Police Service (KPS). Mr. Koome must leave office immediately for this country to enjoy peace and tranquility. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, lastly, let me speak very briefly on this matter of corruption. Corruption has become the order of the day in this country. Unfortunately, the institution that has been charged with the responsibility of fighting corruption is itself the biggest den of corruption. The EACC is either unwilling or unable to fight corruption in this country. They will not help us in this journey. I have listened to the presentation by the Senate Majority Leader on the performance of the judiciary. Though I have gone on record to applaud the Chief Justice (CJ) of having the courage to lead from the front, a lot more needs to be done in the judiciary, especially on matters of corruption. That justice now has become a commodity of sale in the judiciary is a very sad state of affairs in our country. We want this monster called corruption to be tackled properly. I also challenge the demand side of corruption because it is also there. We must have a candid conversation as a country. When churches, schools, hospitals and all manner of institutions look at their MPs and the people serving in public service as the people who are supposed to give them money in harambees and do all this manner of things every day of the week, where do they expect these people to get this money from? Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we must have a national conversation on how to fight corruption. Lastly---"
