    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support and congratulate the Committee for bringing the report without any dissenting view. I know Mr. Johnston Kavuludi; as I supported the other names I want to extend my support to Mr. Kavuludi. He is a pleasant person to listen to. He is not controversial. This is a very sharp and focused man. I have no doubt that through Kavuludi, this Board will ensure that we bring an end to corruption within the police force during recruitment, end tribalism and lack of balance within Kenyan regions when we are giving promotions to police officers. I want to inform hon. Members that police reforms mean that the police has to reform how it relates to the public. As the public, we should also reform how we relate to the police. We say in sweeping statements that police officers are rapists, but some of these officers are decent people, and some of them are born again Christians. My last point is that I wanted to appeal to the President and the Prime Minister that going by the ruling of the High Court on the fight against corruption, it is important that they treat it as a wake-up call and immediately commence the process of appointing a new chief for the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). I thank you and support."
