    "content": "Secondly, when it comes to corruption, we have institutions that deal with it. Section 35 of the National Police Service Act gives powers to the office of the DCI to handle crimes which include corruption because in essence it is a crime. There are certain multi-agencies that are handling corruption. However, we need proper legislation in this House to lay the foundation so that it is clear that in cases that are complex in nature and require extra manpower, they should be given to certain institutions that are in existence in law such as the EACC. That is what we are asking. When it comes to matters insecurity, my constituency, Bureti has been hit hard by insecurity in the last three months. It is high time the security organs started dealing with insecurity. Security is not about taking away security from Hon. Members. What is interesting about this issue of security for MPs is that there is ethnic profiling. It is only MPs from Central Kenya that have had their security withdrawn. I, Japheth Kiplangat Mutai did not have my security withdrawn because I come from Rift Valley. Hon. Members from Central region are the only people in this House that have had their security withdrawn."
