    "content": "councils and village elders, the ward and the village administrators. That kind of structure of Government is very important for maintaining security. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Motion is very timely and, perhaps, it will be one of the heritages of this Senate by giving our nation a very good template for building security for our people. This Motion is based on a specific experience in a particular part of our nation. That is an experience that can be generalized to the rest of the nation. I do believe that as Kenyans listen to us, this Motion will be taken with the importance it deserves and that even the police force itself will internalize what we are saying. By the way, what Sen. Janet Ong’era said is very important. When the law was made to make the Commission an oversight body, it was not for nought; it was so that, that can be implemented in reality. It should not be taken as a power struggle between the Commission and the Inspector General (IG). The two institutions are complementary, playing various roles or different roles in the security system and they should be reinforced and institutionalized as the law intended. But a kind of a rushed job to change the law to meet the political expediency of the day will be a disservice to this nation. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support."
