    "content": "together; we were able to sort out our issues and, finally, we were able even to get a new Constitution in this country. We cannot continue thinking that some foreigners will come and solve our issues. At this particular time, I thought the then Commissioner of Police should have been commended for the work that he did because most of the towns were kept safe because of his vigilance. At this particular time, I expected the Commandant of the Administration Police, who also did a very good job--- When people were pulling out the railway line in Kibera; when people were trying to walk to the city centre of Nairobi and they were told they cannot come to the city centre--- I remember some hon. Members who were urging the youths to demonstrate in our streets were kept out of this city and the city stayed safe. We know how much we lost, economically, at that particular time. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is it the six who went to Nyanza, torched and destroyed properties in the city of Kisumu? Who else could have done that? The list of six is not the police! It is those rowdy youths; it is those rowdy leaders who were calling people for mass action who put us in these problems. However, today, we have six and we are trying to celebrate by saying that the six can go to hell. As a country, we need to get back on our feet; we need to get hold of our issues; we need to sort out our issues and not to celebrate because we think we are going to get rid of certain people who are going to block our way as we are trying to get to State House. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is high time we sorted out our issues and solved problems internally. We have a new Constitution in place, and I do not need to repeat this. We need to sort out our issues internally. I beg to support."
