    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. In legal circles, there is something we call provident. It is extremely worrying that the people who are supposed to be guarding us are doing so at the discretion of other people who we do not know, yet we think that they are taking orders from us. It is, therefore, absolutely in bad taste that Sen. Muthama’s security has been treated casually. The office of the person in charge is possibly 300 metres from here and so, there is no reason all of us should not walk to that office and protest against the manner in which insecurity has been treated. Mr. Speaker, Sir, from information that I have received from my good friend and Senator for Kitui and the press conference by Sen. Muthama, the security officers attached to Sen. Muthama were withdrawn via a phone call which lasted less than ten minutes. It has taken more than two weeks for his security to be reinstated and now they are not picking phone calls. So, it is extremely worrying to know that as a new Senator in this House, I am walking around with a security officer who is taking instructions from somebody in an office and at any given time, he can be withdrawn. Therefore, as Senators, we are being treated casually. The issue of security ought to be taken seriously. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
