    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you saw the video clip, this white gentleman – if he is gentleman at all – was physically assaulting a police officer on duty. With such glaring evidence, open and shut case. We do not want to hear that the matter is under investigation. It was obvious. I have seen a 411 flash that he has been dismissed. However, the consequence of a physical assault on a police officer is not a dismissal. He was not even a Government employee, but an employee of a private company. Can the Chairperson of the Committee bring the statement urgently? This should not wait for two weeks. As early as tomorrow, tell us:- (1) Whether this gentleman is a Kenyan.We have white Kenyans and we have no problem with that. (2) If he is not a Kenyan, whether the permit that allows him to stay in this country will be interfered with.We do not want to have visitors with a colonial mindset that thinks that an African is an object of assault as and when you wish. (3) More importantly, whether the gentleman – if he is gentle at all – has been arrested, recorded a statement and taken to court. Even the Deputy President whom he was piloting has condemned the matter. So, we take him as a witness in the matter as well."
