10 May 2017 in National Assembly:
While we talk about this Bill and injuries to our police officers, it is very sad that only three weeks ago, the officer in charge of traffic at Maseno Police Station in my constituency, a lady, while on duty on patrol on Kisumu-Maseno Road, was knocked down by a malicious motorist deliberately off the road and he dumped the car there and ran away. Up to now, he has not been found, but the lady died while on duty. When this happens, even if this law is in place, we should have a mechanism where the process of compensation is ...

What can we do as Members of Parliament to ensure that police officers enjoy human rights like humane housing? The NG-CDF Act that we passed provides that among the duties that NG-CDF may be funding is security which is the Police Force. How are we, as Members of Parliament, advising our respective Committees to channel funding to improve the lot of police officers who work in our respective constituencies? I am happy to say that the relationship between my office and the security apparatus in the constituency is cordial. I am then able to determine that police officers at Maseno, ...

Lastly, as we debate this Bill, let us dedicate our time to those officers who die in the line of duty, but not just the ones who die because they have been hurt physically. What about the ones who lose their minds and suffer mental stress because of what they do? It might be difficult, but lawyers and doctors, particularly lawyers who have done matters pertaining to suicide, murder and manslaughter, will be able to tell us that an incident that results to such types of crimes may have everlasting mental effect on the police officer. So, as you look ...

What makes an officer decide to shoot himself dead? What makes an officer decide to shoot his colleague dead? It must be something that is very deep rooted. So, in terms of treatment and injury, how do we stop police officers from this type of trauma that makes them kill themselves or their colleagues? Those are injuries in the nature of work that also needs to be addressed. That will need ...
