"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to second the Motion by Hon. Rose Museo, who is the county representative of Makueni. She is also my county Member. It is an honour and a privilege to second the critical Motion that addresses major ignorance in our society. I must commend Hon. Rose Museo for attempting to expose and address the issue that people feel should be hidden away from public glare. It is high time we addressed a sensitive issue such as mental illness. How long shall we keep quiet about it? I have experienced that problem since I have a number of my constituents who are mentally sick. I remember in 1996 when I was in primary school, a police officer was killed by a mentally challenged person in my constituency. This is a serious matter. Some are docile while others are violent. This violence in some occasions leads to physical harm, tragic accidents and even suicide attempts."
