    "content": " Thank you, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda. I want to inform her because I have heard her speak on this particular topic and I wanted to say the same thing to Sen. Wambua, but I did not get the opportunity. It is on the topic that they are speaking to. They are all saying that we must find a way of bringing sanity back to the country. Part of bringing sanity, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda, includes us being honest with ourselves and stop being dishonest to the country. There has been a conversation in the country about who owns the goons. You will hear people say they belong to so-and-so. The people who own the goons are those who defend them. Right now, we have a challenge of goons who take advantage of the protests to break into people's shops and police stations. In your county, I saw them steal milk from the most successful cooperative in the country. Therefore, Sen. Tabitha Mutinda, if you want to address yourself to that particular topic, you must be honest and condemn those goons. You cannot pretend that you want to solve that particular problem, yet you are only addressing one facet of the problem. I listened to what the President said and he did not say that the protesters should be shot, neither did he say that anybody should be shot. He said that people who are breaking into people's homes, harassing, raping women and stealing people's property should be immobilized and taken to court. Therefore, the owners of the goons are those who are either defending them or saying absolutely nothing about their conduct."
