    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the Chair of the Committee brings the answer on the issue of police reservists, he should also bring the Government policy on the appointment of police reservists. We have seen in certain counties, where there are multi-ethnic formation of populations with multi-facets of political affiliations, the Government recruits and arms politically correct communities in the name of police reservists. They then unleash them to terrorize those who are not on the right side of the politics of the day. We have seen this happen in Baringo, Trans- Nzoia, Bungoma and many other places. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, what is the criteria of appointment of police reservists? Is it an admission of the inadequacy of the real police? Is it an admission of the ineffectiveness of the police or what is it meant to cure? Why can the police reservists not be appointed or selected in a multi-ethnic set-up from all ethnic sittings so that there are no cases of violation of people’s rights through ethnic biases?"
