10 May 2017 in National Assembly:
For a long time, the police service was not able to attract some of the best trained Kenyans. Why? Even graduates or professionals would join the police service at the lowest grade of constable. So, that made it impossible for bright Kenyans to join the police force. As a result, most of the police officers who are retiring were not very well educated. They were looking at educated Kenyans as their enemies in the force. So, if you are a graduate and you join the Police Force, they will look at you as somebody who has come in the wrong ...

10 May 2017 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am particularly happy because the National Police Service (Amendment) Bill defines and extends treatment beyond the period of service or contract of the officer who is affected. That is important because there are injuries that officers sustain in the course of duty which will go beyond the period of service. There are injuries that may be sustained by a traumatised police officer which are of mental nature. My friend, Hon.

“Good morning, Hon. I hope you are okay. I have a humble request, if you can be in a position to assist. There is a young man who is my neighbour and has an interest to join the police force. However, the mother is not able to raise the bribe of Kshs250,000 that he has been asked to raise. She is just a widow who washes clothes for people to feed her children. Please help, if you can.”

That is coming up because of the corruption that we have had in recruitment process in the police service. It is important that as we debate this amendment, we make it clear to those officers who will be in charge of recruitment this week and next week The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of ...
