"content": "From the outset, I want to thank our able Chair for working hard to bring this Amendment Bill. I am a member of the Committee and I must commend him for the endless hours the Committee spent out of town. Let me also commend the members of KDF who made their presentations to us and the CS. The amendments will bring the Kenya Defence Forces Act in line with the Constitution and make it accountable and clear. It will ensure there is no disruption of the established chain of command in the disciplined force. Our disciplined force is one of the best in the region given its size, and that is commendable. All officers in line of duty work diligently to protect our borders and the citizens of Kenya. They ensure that our territorial boundaries are intact and continue to maintain peace and stability with our neighbours. We recognise their work in ensuring that we are not threatened by Somalia and commend them for that good work."
