Wetangula","speaker_title":"The Senate Minority Leader","speaker":{"id":210,"legal_name":"Moses Masika Wetangula","slug":"moses-wetangula"},"content":" Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Speaker of the day, the distinguished Senator for Kajiado, told me to substantiate today. He never said that I would have to substantiate before I continue with my debate and I will substantiate before I finish. The point was very simple. I said that the President said that the police population ratio in Kenya is now higher than the United Nations (UN) recommended standard. I said I had consulted with the police and a senior police officer told me that that statement was incorrect. I do not even know what I am supposed to substantiate but I am coming to that and I will explain it, if you allow me to go on. There was no caveat that I must start with that before I continue my speech."}
