"content": "Lastly, we woke up this morning to a very scary media report on how police officers are accessing private communication through mobile phones and using that communication to track down people for abduction. That is a very serious matter and it informs the basis of one of the resolutions that we made at that time. We must remind the IG of Police that the right to privacy is a Chapter 4 right under the Constitution. Article 31 of the Constitution of Kenya 2010 requires that the privacy of communication for every member of society must never be infringed. If that report is true, because we have not verified it - if that information is true - then it is more reason that this House must summon the IG of Police to come and explain to Kenyans why they are tracking down Kenyans and abducting them using mobile phones. This is also a call to order for a private institution, one that we respect and one that we have built with our own money and commitment. Safaricom must be put to order. It cannot be that they are going to misuse their monopoly to aid the police in breaking the law. This House must stand firm and say no to the infringement of people's privacy."
