"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the petition by Hon. Ichung’wah. It seems like that there is a new way of doing things in Kiambu County – that, if you cannot do them legally, you can do them using gangs. This has happened so often that people are now wondering what will happen next. It started in Thika, where a gang of goons was sent to burn Makongeni Market. Nothing was done to them. Instead, they were given protection by Administration Police (AP) officers. The goons in Thika used unmarked cars. It is now happening over and over again. I remember a case where a blogger was arrested and forced to go to Mombasa to answer to some charges. Several Members of Parliament from Kiambu County went to Mombasa in support of that blogger. Over 100 hired goons thronged the court room to make it difficult for the Members who had travelled to Mombasa to give moral support to the blogger."
