    "content": "authority. Kenya needs a police service that serves the people and protects human life not the trigger-happy police who will injure their fellow countrymen at any encounter. This notwithstanding, there are numerous police officers who are doing a superb job and we need to congratulate them. Majority of Kenyans are struggling to survive from paying their financial obligations such as loans and rent to meeting daily basic needs. Businesses have been affected negatively at all levels, people have lost jobs and their sources of livelihood as companies close or send employees on unpaid leave. The situation has further been complicated by the fact that almost the whole household is at home most of the time, increasing consumption. Some people have had their doors and roofs removed and essential services like electricity and water disconnected. This is wrong and the executive needs to pronounce itself on the same. The stress coming from all this is immense. The Government needs to explore ways of having a dedicated online counseling platform in the form of a toll-free call centre where citizens can vent out their frustration and get assistance. I encourage all Kenyans from all walks of life to continue being vigilant during this time of the pandemic. Be supportive and understanding and, above all, follow Government directives. Stay home if you can, regularly wash your hands with soap and running water or sanitize and keep social distance. The discomfort of wearing a mask might be what will save your life and those around you. Above all, we shall overcome this pandemic. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
