    "content": "So, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is a very serious issue and I would like to plead with the Government to spend a little bit on this issue because I think the police are working in the old ways. What used to happen sometimes back is that when a crime was committed and the police were informed, they would rush in the opposite direction. I think it is the same thing that is happening. This is because it cannot be happening at a place just near Kisumu at 7.30 p.m. and I am sure there must have some regular police or Administration Police (AP) officers within the same area that would have seen what was happening. So, when one reports occurrences of crimes in this country no action is taken. I concur with what the Member has said that we need a total overhaul of the police force. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security has talked about the issue of the police. We are saying that those who cannot be able to perform should be retired or we just engage new ones whom we can train and then they can perform in line with what is required as a country and as is expected of the Government of Kenya. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to second."
