    "content": "Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also want to send my heartfelt condolences to the family of Mr. Albert Ojwang’ and the entire nation. Today, it is a very sad day for this country. It is true we do not know where to start and we do not know what to say. If a young man, Mr. Ojwang’, can die in a police cell and people would dare say that he committed suicide--- We have several Kenyans who have died in the hands of the police. I remember the citizens who died in the hands of the police with bullets in Angata Barakoi. Just recently, we had several members of the community of Majimoto, in Narok County, again, who died at the hands of police with bullets. Just recently, a day ago, in Nakuru, somebody was shot dead. This is becoming too much for Kenyans to bear. As most of our colleagues have said here, we want to demand that the IG of Police, whom I participated in his vetting in the Committee of National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations. We want him in this House. We want to demand him, not later than tomorrow. We want to ask him because the responsibility stands and the buck stops with him. The President should also take this because he is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces; he needs to take responsibility for the same. We cannot keep having Kenyans dying under his watch and there is no action. I want to stop on that, but I also want to support this Statement fully. Action must be taken."
