    "content": "Hon. Temporary Speaker, people came from as far as Vikingi and Soin to protect my property. What does exercising the constitutional right to protest have to do with attacking my personal home and property? Yesterday, I saw the love of my great people of Molo. What is the cost of those demonstrations? Capital Supermarket, Olelei Butchery, Jubilee Supermarket, Kariu’s Supermarket and Mix Electronics in Molo were completely looted. The stock of the ordinary men and women who work very hard in our market, watu wa soko wa Molo, was completely stolen. Gari zetu za kuzima moto na kuokota takataka and a few other county government’s vehicles were also vandalised. Why did it happen? One Form III student was killed in the process. More than 10 General Service Unit (GSU) officers are still in hospital now. Some of them do not have teeth and legs. We need to change this country. At what cost are we going to allow this to happen in the name of protests? My people are waking up now. They had businesses which they do not have anymore and still have loans to pay. There were people who were employed in all the businesses I have mentioned and many others. They have nowhere to report to now. People in matatus were being forced to pay a levy to cross border points that had been set up by armed goons. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
