"content": "Thank you, Temporary Deputy Speaker. I realise that time is limited. Let me plead with my colleagues to stop lamenting. The answer to this absurdity is in this House. Of everybody who has spoken, other than a couple of Members who have referred to the Constitution, I have not heard anybody do the work of Parliament. Everybody knows that rape is absurd. What are we doing as a House? We cannot live in a lawless country. How is it that if I was a policeman and a picture is flashed on television, I can know that is so and so? That area has policemen and CID officers. Why was the person not arrested yesterday? The picture is so clear. We are being protected by a dysfunctional police force and this House has a duty to fix it. I know there are political challenges, but we have a duty, through other means, to protect Kenyans."
