"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am guided. I therefore, wish to commend Hon. Kamama. I am aware that he is reported to have built 15 police stations, posts and patrols in his constituency using the Constituency Development Fund (CDF). However, I would have liked to hear Hon. Kamama condemn the murder of Mr. Kitambaa. His silence is disturbing but I would not go beyond that because you will caution me as you have just done. Allow me to send my condolences to the family of Mr. Pepee Kitambaa and the MCA who were shamelessly and cowardly murdered while relaxing at home. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, retired President, Daniel Arap Moi, the longest serving president in the Republic of Kenya, whose record shall never be broken unless somebody amends our Constitution, comes from Baringo. During his rule, President Moi presided over levels of poverty and illiteracy in his own home. In fact, he ran away from living at home and came to hide in Nakuru. I think that a law should be written in this country that when a man becomes a head of state, he should be stopped from living outside his county so that he can also be a good example to the children who are born in that county that they can become heads of state. President Moi ruled this country for so long. When I will be through with the writing of my book, I intend to describe Moi’s rule as well as that of Mzee Kenyatta and Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta as leadership of the rich, by the rich and for the rich at the expense of the poor. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to speak to the issue of our police officers, our men and women in uniform. In this report, a lot has been written about police officers. Do you recall that on the 15th of January last year, gallant sons of this county at El Edde were killed? We only heard from Al Jezeera. We do not know what the 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"
