    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I support that we adjourn and go for this short recess. As we go on recess, I cannot help but remember that the President addressed a Joint Sitting of this Parliament and told us that the security of this country has improved. He said that that was part of global terrorism manifested mainly by the Al Shabaab. He went on to point out that partly to blame was the radicalisation of our youth and extreme violence mainly emanating from Somalia. However, he forgot about security completely and went on to talk about other things. This shows that His Excellency, President Uhuru Kenyatta, was not ready to be the President of Kenya. Therefore, he should do the honourable thing; since he is asking governors to step aside. He should also step aside or resign so that we go to the elections and get a fresh leader of the country. We cannot sit and watch our children die. Do the families of all the students who were wiped out know that tomorrow is Easter holiday? It is very sad. We remind the Inspector-General, Mr. Boinnet, that he is on the spot. We told him that: “As you come in through all the machinations of political connections and so on, you are facing 400 police officers who are senior than you.” He should be aware that the element of sabotage could be there. He should be aware that corruption within the force is actually the main reason behind the insecurity. 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."
