    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you are aware that if there is a report made to the police showing that there is a problem in a household, that is how the police come in. It would be very difficult for the police to know whether hon. Mrs. Odhiambo-Mabona has a problem with her husband, unless they report to the police for assistance. The police will assist both hon. Mrs. Odhiambo-Mabona and her husband. Hon. Mureithi said that the mother had alleged that Samuel Wanjiru was killed. He also asked whether we can fast-track the investigations. Those are allegations. When you lose a son like Wanjiru, it is quite tormenting. So, we are fast-tracking the investigations and if, indeed, there is any clue to the effect that Samuel Wanjiru was killed, the law is very clear on that. However, as of now, let us stop speculating. In fact, I would like to tell the family members not to speculate. Instead, they should go and report anything that they may be aware of, so that the police officers can investigate the matter thoroughly. Hon. G.I - those who do not know what G.I stands for, it is Gitobu Imanyara - asked what steps the police are taking to ensure that the properties are safe. These are some of the issues that are in our Constitution. There are provisions on ownership of property, how it can be transferred and who will administer the estate. This is a matter of law. That, notwithstanding, because he was one of our officers, we will assist the family, should they want assistance from the police. Hon. Ogindo also asked how many women are claiming to be associated to Wanjiru. Ordinarily, it becomes very difficult for the police to know how many women are claiming Wanjiru to be their husband. However, we will leave that to the family. They are the ones to tell us whether they married through the customary way or from the bar. We will leave that to the family members. Hon. Njuguna asked whether there was a scuffle. In my statement, I mentioned that there was no scuffle at all. However, there were bitter exchanges between Nduta and Triza. Triza is the wife of Wanjiru."
