"content": "complaint. Unfortunately, the situation gets complicated by the fact that officers who report to him went and picked this particular young man who died under very mysterious circumstances. If it was up to me, it would have been neater to advise Mr. Eliud Lagat that nobody has said you are guilty, but for the country and myself, as your friend to have a clear conscience, appreciate and know what really happened, step aside until investigations are concluded. Otherwise, as it is, no person of good conscience, even if you are to remain firm in the things that are being said about it, can absolve you. However, that is just it; it is not in my place. It is the place of Chairperson of the NPSC to tell us how such matters are to be handled. If it was a separate institution that was reporting about what happened, people would have appreciated that he did the right thing. I do not want to indulge into the pros and the cons of what is before us. What is important is for Senators to take this time to appreciate what is before us. It is a very solemn moment for the country to watch and listen and get to learn. With those very many remarks, I beg to move this Motion and request the Senator for Kitui County, the Deputy Minority Leader, to second."
