    "content": "There might have been one or two cases of irregularity during the recruitment just as in this House, where you cannot condemn the whole House because of a sin committed by one Member. Of the 10,000 recruits, I am very sure 95 per cent got their jobs fairly. The security agencies in this country need to sit down and work together, so that these young recruits proceed to college. There was a case in Nakuru where a lady miscarried because she was told the husband could not join the police training college. That was a very serious issue. These people should be taken back to college and the sideshows created by the National Police Service Commission and IPOA must end. On the issue of corrupt police officers, especially in the Traffic Department, this is an issue which has been raised severally whenever there has been a report on corruption in this country. We want to tell the new Inspector-General of Police that he needs to have a way of taming corruption amongst the officers. They cannot be the ones prosecuting people in courts, yet they are the ones ranked number one in corruption. If you go to the courts, you will find that prosecutors are policemen, yet they are the ones leading in corruption. The new Inspector-General of Police needs to look into this matter critically to ensure that the menace is totally eliminated from the police force. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you are looking for an individual who has got diplomacy skills, it is Joseph Kipchirchir Boinnet. If you are looking for an individual with intelligence background and experience to be the Inspector-General of the National Police Service (NPC), it is Joseph Kipchirchir Boinnet. If you are looking for an officer who understands the police service, who has worked for 30 years and who knows all the systems, look for none other than Joseph Kipchirchir Boinnet. With those many remarks, I support his nomination. I congratulate the Committee again. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
