    "content": "Hon. Wetangula had suggested that the police should be provided with a chopper. Yes, I have asked this House to approve more money to enable us buy choppers. You are aware that it is hon. Kimunya who gave us some money to buy two fixed wings for caravans and a chopper during his tenure. I have asked on several occasions for not only a chopper, but also for money. We need money. The police force needs money to restructure and do reforms. We need that money. Eight litres of fuel is not enough for a police vehicle considering the cost of fuel now. It cannot be enough. The police officer will do not do rounds within Kisumu City alone with eight litres. That is completely nothing! That is why I have been begging my colleagues that when we are passing the Budget, please, double my Budget. If it is Kshs46 billion, double it in order for us to serve you better. You know the cost of a chopper. It is not something small. We are talking of Kshs300 million plus. If you do not give me enough money, it will not be possible to render services which are required by our people."
