"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the chance to add my voice on this very sad security issue. First, I would like to wish the Senator for Lamu a quick recovery. I want to state clearly that insecurity in our country is becoming a very big problem. In fact, for the last one month, about 20 vehicles belonging to the citizens of Bomet were stolen, and there is no sign of recovery. I thought that Cabinet Secretary (CS), Dr. Matiang’i was given this particular docket of Internal Security to bring the wisdom that he had when he was the CS for Education. He cleared the mess that was affecting examinations in this country. The CS for Interior and Co-ordination of National Government should actually strengthen the Police Service to make sure that incidents of insecurity, for example, where a Senator is beaten and the suspects are released within a few hours, become a thing of the past. If possible, we would like the Senate Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations to invite him to appear before them. He should clarify why a Member of Parliament was beaten up by criminals, and in a few hours, the suspects were released on a very cheap bond of Kshs20,000. I support this particular Statement."
