    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, however, one of the suspects was lynched. The members of the public as I earlier intimated while responding to the Question by Private Notice, are not willing to volunteer information to link other suspects with the murder. We are calling upon them to volunteer in order for us to avert further incidences of armed robberies and murders. I am also aware of the potential threat the murders have on our security considering the high risk of ethnic tensions in the area. However, the Government is taking the cases seriously and we are doing everything possible to deter any serious incident. On this, continuous disarmament exercise will still be there since no individual is allowed to possess an illegal firearm. For the last one month, five assorted firearms have been recovered within the region and police will continue with efforts to recover illicit firearms in the hands of criminals. On improving the performance of the officers, senior officers are undergoing training at the Kenya Education Staff Institute (KESI) while junior officers are being retrained in their respective provincial training centres. Additional vehicles have been allocated to various stations and AP camps. Further, the police are working in close relation with the members of public through community policing to enhance their performance. The implementation of Rapid Result Initiative (RRI) has also contributed to the improvement of performance levels of these police officers."
