"content": " Yes. The Kenya Police. They cross over to Uganda, grow bhang, supervise the porous border point through Mulwanda, Sigalame and Bukhwamba, and escort it to Nairobi. You can see how deep-rooted that menace is. It is well supported and protected by the security forces. It is good that the matter has been directed to the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs. They need to rein in the police force and all the security apparatus in this country. The police make a lot of money from it, much more than they make from their salaries and allowances. But they cannot do so at the expense of the young people in this country. If you go to most schools in western Kenya, the boys and the girls – who are becoming notorious – look like zombies. We are worried. We used to laugh at the people from the Mount Kenya region because their kindergarten classrooms were empty. Probably in the next few years in western Kenya, our classrooms will also be empty because men are not doing the work that they are supposed to, and women are complaining all over. We ask you for your assistance to solve this menace so that we can continue to reproduce. We need more young people to take over our positions as we grow old. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
