    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition on the dismissal of an officer from the Defence Forces. There should be a framework on how somebody is disciplined and dismissed from work which should take due course, not just taking disciplinary action and dismissing a person. This is because they suffer psychologically and the family members also suffer. Maybe, he is the breadwinner of his family and extended family. The trauma of losing a job is so much knowing that getting a job in Kenya is very difficult and the person can become sick because of this. I support that this Petition should be looked into seriously. I have a case in my constituency where an Administration Police lady officer was dismissed by her boss because she requested for permission to go and see her sick mother. The in-charge told her to bring her uniform and she was dismissed. I have been trying to get her back to the force again and it is very difficult. The arbitrary dismissal of people is not good and should be looked into seriously."
