    "content": "If you wanted a Director of Medical Services from the North Eastern Province, you will get one. Today, there are qualified people all over the world. Ministers or Permanent Secretaries are nothing. You can have Ministers from one region who are powerless. When the former Vice- Chancellor of Kenyatta University was removed from office, the Acting Minister comes from his area. I doubt whether he knew what was going to happen. He must have read it in the newspapers just like me. I do not understand why he should be on the Government side. He should be with us this side! If I am not saying the truth, let him challenge me. He read the news in the newspapers just like me! He is the Acting Minister for Education and yet, he cannot even protect his voter. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have talked about security. We can never have security in this country when the Police Force is divided. Of late, you can see that the Police Force is divided. One wing of the police is getting instructions from a different force. The so-called Commissioner of Police acts on his own. He has nobody to support him. Maybe, he could be supported by Parliament. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Mr. Raila talked about the two Armenians who are in this country. You cannot tell us that those are good people! Those are people whose records, from 78 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 23 March, 2006 wherever they are, are questionable. We have read it from the newspapers. Even the Armenian Government has denied knowing them! We are being told that there are investigations. Those people are so uncouth in their dealings! You even doubt whether they are respectable people. When a foreigner asks the Minister of State in charge of Internal Security to shut up and he in deed shuts up--- Who is behind those people? That is because for me, knowing Mr. Michuki, for him to shut up, those people must be having a lot of force behind them!"
