"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, regarding the duties of the council, one of them is administration of the Service. That is fundamental. It arises from our experience and our fears. So, I plead with my colleagues, because I know we are in this together. The fears are that this force, which we did not fundamentally change- -- We have all agreed that because we are facing elections, we keep the personnel but some of them are political. Our fears can only be addressed by this council. I can tell you that the immediate deputy to the Director-General is at home somewhere in Kimilili today. He was summarily dismissed not too long ago. If this council was there, he would have somewhere to go. He was dismissed a few months ago. He is jobless and has nowhere to go. That is why the wisdom of this council will be so important. Note that you are living in Kenya where there is so much mistrust. Do not trust one person. Let us have a Council; we have defined them and if you did that, it negates Section 65. Look at Mr. Kimunya---"
