"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have already shared the Statement with him, so I will go direct to the response. I wish to state that on 6th November, 2016 at about 2.30 p.m., Gov. Isaac Rutto stormed a football match at Silibwet Football pitch while accompanied by his supporters and disrupted an ongoing match between Silibwet Football Club and Bunge Football Club. The Governor demanded to know why some of his supporters had been arrested. The actions of the Governor and his supporters elicited reactions from the football fans who started pelting stones at the Governor and his supporters. During the commotion, the Governor was hit with a stone on his face and hurriedly whisked away by his bodyguards. In the meantime, the police dispersed the rioters and the crowd. Neither the Governor nor any other person has reported any case of injury to any police station to warrant further investigation. On provisions of security to the political aspirants, the Government will provide security to all lawfully organised campaign rallies whenever the organisers notify the police as required by the law. On the question of the suspect being arrested, I wish to state that there were four and not three suspects who were arrested on the day of the fracas and not a day before as alleged. They were charged at the Bomet Law court. They are:- (1) Mr. Livingstone Chepkwony (2) Mr. Kenneth Kibet (3) Mr. Haroun Kibet The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
