    "content": "In the scandalous case of Chicken Gate, the evidence and witnesses that were used in a court in England came from Kenya and that court found the perpetrator and his son to be guilty and they were jailed for seven years. They have served their sentences and are now at home. In Kenya, the case has not even started. Our investigations helped England convict those criminals. They sent them to jail and confiscated their properties. The Committee that visited the prison in Kitui must have audience with the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), the Chief Justice and the Director of Criminal Investigation (DCI) to address the issue of the breakdown of criminal justice system. I said this when we were with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. and the rest of the Committee Members though Sen. Cherargei, the Chairperson of the Committee, was not there. If Kitui, a county with a reasonably smaller population can suffer that much, what about Nairobi, Kisumu or Nakuru? We must address these issues. The Senate Committees should not wait for issues to be raised on this Floor. Sen. Dullo has been raising this issue for too long. Thank you, Sen. Halake, for complementing your colleague, the elected Senator for your County. We encourage you to work together to give justice a sense of belonging and fairness to your people. The people of Isiolo should own their inheritance."
