threats and security challenges in the country. We have issues of terrorism and cybercrime, which is the latest form of security threat in the country. l have a concern about how investigations are carried out in this country. The equipment that the police use is archaic and when you go to some countries, they no longer use them. We hope that the new laboratory at the DCI Headquarters will assist the police in handling crimes that involve robbery with violence and other complex crimes, including economic crimes.

(Dr.) Kabaka should go to church more often so that when some of these things are mentioned, he does not become so evil as to imagine his own things.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to commend Sen. Sakaja for this important Statement. The Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights and the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations have been looking at some of the amendments.

Therefore, everybody in this country must be keen on ensuring that Nairobi City County runs efficiently and effectively because we are all affected in one way or the other. I do hope that the Committee - that I am a part of - will discuss this and ensure that we prosecute this matter expeditiously. We do not need some of these things.
