    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I note those words; “rare.” I am here to support this Motion because it is timely. Nairobi, being a metropolitan City – and I think until the new Constitution was promulgated, it was the only city in the country – now needs special attention, especially on security. It needs special attention because you cannot walk on these streets, especially beyond Tom Mboya Street, without being mugged. In fact, just to emphasize, I was a victim recently. I was actually driving along Waiyaki Way and I slowed down to pick my phone. Of course, I was making a mistake to pick my phone, but I did not know that my window was halfway down. Somebody just grabbed it and ran away with it. It seems like everywhere you walk in Nairobi, if you meet three people, two of them are thieves. We are living in a very bad environment. In fact, if you went abroad and you met a similar situation – that you were walking on the street, talking to your phone and somebody grabbed it – I do not think you would want to go back to that country again. In fact, it leaves a very bad taste in your mouth. What kind of country is this? But unfortunately, that is how Nairobi is known. Other countries are known because if you take your hand out of the window of a plane and it is too hot, then you know you are nearing Egypt; if it is too cold, then you know that this must be Europe. But if you are wearing your watch and you put your hand out of the window and your watch is grabbed, then you know you are nearing Nairobi."
