    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was able to establish that Wunandi Sub Location – this is where the latest incident happened – has not had a substantive assistant chief for two years. This is wrong, and it should be corrected immediately. There are also allegations that the police officers at Magada Police Post – which is a rented structure – operate between 8.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m. and close for the night. The police post has no vehicle and hence, to a great extent, are ill-equipped to respond to any emergency. If the Government fails to take firm action to restore order and build public confidence, there will be chaos. As we speak, incidents of civilians, in an effort to protect themselves, resorting to mob justice are on the rise. This is dangerous for the society. The residents of Vihiga cannot have peaceful sleep at night. The Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Interior and Coordination of National Government is known to be thorough and no nonsense. Ironically, these two incidents occurred three weeks after he visited the county and held meetings with the security teams, following outcries by the residents on rampant insecurity. It is my greatest hope that this will be the last time that the attention of this Senate is being drawn on matters of insecurity in Vihiga County; and that the people of Vihiga will immediately enjoy peace and security as Kenyans from any other part of the country. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
